Good Afternoon all.
Our (ancient) Hitachi PLC on a reverse osmosis plant is dying and my Boss wants to use an IDEC MicroSmart PLC to replace it. I have very limited exposure to PLCs, but the ladder looks very simple, and I have managed to convert most of the I/O, internal relays etc over to IDEC. I am a bit confused about the counters and timers though - the counters have two inputs, the top one looks like the "pulse" for the counter to count down, whilst the second input looks like a reset - does that sound correct (opposite to IDEC)
The timers look similar with just a single input.
Also, does the IDEC have a one minute clock pulse relay
Any help would be appreciated - enjoy your weekend!
Regards,
Wayne
