Hello,
I have another question about my part tracking app.
Thats to all those that have been such a help so far.
I am working on an app where I have to track a container between an inspection station and an eject station. I have an encoder hooked up the HSC and I have it working for a single container.
My next step is to add tracking for multible containers. I an stearing away from shift registers because if the last few containers are bad, there will be no inspection behind them that I can use to shift them into ejection position and there may be a variable number of containers between the inspection station and the ejection station.
I was thinking a FIFO stack would work much better but I can find no documentation on how to setup a FIFO with a DL05DR. The Automation Direct sales guy told me on the phone before I bought it that it could do fifo stacks, but I can not seem to find any documentation to help me set one up.
Does anyone have any suggestions? I need to have this done by Sunday evening so any suggestions would be very apriciated. Thanks in advance!
Greg
