Good day everyone, I trust you had a excellent weekend!!!!



This is in relation to some other posts I have read where the term FIFO gets used, now I understand that the acronym stands for First in First Out, but what I want to know is if there is some sort of block in the plc that deals with this specifically? This will be for the simatic, but also in general. If you could also list some applications?
 
yes there are blocks for first in first out in simatic

you can find them in the library/standard library/ti-s7 conversion

and it is called fc 85



i used it in pump sequences for example if u have ten pumps and every time u need a pump u start a differnt one
