Hi you all.
I'm new here and allready have a question.
At this moment i'm programming a project with a unitronics V290.
To measure the lenght of a product we use a shaft encoder with a measure wheel attached to it (number of pulse is free programmable).
I configured a shaft encoder (X4) in the hardware with frequency measurement 100msec.
To start a sequence in my program one of the conditions have to be that the encoder is indeed measuring (so there is a product moving under the measuring-wheel).
I use a Greater Than FB to check if the frequency is greater then zero. If this is true then a MB.... is high. This MB is my condition to start the sequence.
My question now is if this is a good solution of does anyone have a better one?????
Thanx for the answers en reactions.
Leon
