I know this is slightly of subject, but I need some help creating a hardwired circuit.
What I am trying to accomplish is cycling a single solenoid off and on using one pushbutton. In other words, press and hold the button once and the solenoid engages. Let off the button and then press and hold it again to disengage the solenoid.
I know this is an easy program to write in a PLC using latch/unlatch coils and a one-shot, but I need a simple way to hardwire one with minimal components. Does anyone have a clean little method for this? I guess the real problem I have is effectively creating the one-shot.
Thanks in advance.
