Hi all.
By my recent posts you will notice I use a lot of Red Lion HMI panels. I am a software programer from way back (electrician by trade) and I still like writing code so I like doing PROGRAMS in Crimson 3.
In most of my cases we have slc500 units connected to the panels. I can easily do what I want using ladder logic but am a bit hesitant to make changes to running syste, I am now going to bite the bullett and have a couple of questions in regards to live editing. My plc stuff is normally down then downloaded as I lack the self confidence to do live stuff but here goes
The system is currently in RUN mode (key switch) and the equipment is running . SO I gather I have to put it into program mode
Can I do this while its running and it wont stop?
As for the live editing, I found a tutorial but my main question is above. I am sure I will have more
