I am monitoring the amperage on a motor1. If motor1 exceeds current limit2, i kill the entire operation and it must be manually restarted. If it goes above current limit1, i kill motor2 and motor3. Motor 2&3 feed motor1 so by killing them, motor one has time to finish its task and in turn, drop its amperage back down to an acceptable level.
My only problem is that they want motor 2&3 to come back online if the amperage drops back down to an acceptable level. I have it set so that motor1 must be running and the amperage is below a set value for more than XX seconds, i can use the dn bit to re-enable the motors. I don't know why they would run motor1 without the other 2 on but i don't want those to start automatically unless it is after a failure. How would one do that? Does that make any sense? I'm not the greatest as explaining stuff. Please let me know if there is something faulty about what i wrote. I am still learning this.
