I am updating an older RSlogix 500 program and am just wondering whether to leave the alarm latching the way it was done or convert it.
Currently it is programmed to use OTL's and the reset bit triggers a clear on one word reserved for alarms and OTU's for the randomly place alarms.
I normally use OTE's with a seal in contact branched down and the alarm reset bit XIO before the OTE to acknowledge the alarms. I also normally but a timer on my reset bit to keep it alive longer than momentary.
just curious on others opinions, I don't like using OTL/OTU unless necessary, like for retaining state
