Hello,
I am a little on the new side when it comes to ladder logic, so I am seeking a little help.
I am using a DL-06 PLC with Directsoft32 software. I wrote a very basic program that basically says when X-x is turned on, start a timer and if X-x1 hasn't been triggered within a certain amount of seconds to turn my machine off.
The X inputs represent sensors and the problem I am running into is there is some space between each sensor. So if a jam occurs of what is running through this machine but the item is past my first X input and it is no longer activated, the timer will have reset since in my logic X-x isnt on.
Is there a way I can perform my task other than using what I am using now, it looks something like this:
------|X3|---------|/|X4---------------------------------------------TMR 1 K30
------|T1|-------------------------------------------------------------(RST Y1)
With X4 being inside the lines.
Thank you for the help.
