Hi all. Been surfing here since the site was recommended to me durring a Redlion sales call.
I am looking for a best practice on how to have a Redlion G15 report on the communications link to a Schnieder Momentum or Compact plc.
For monitoring the comm link between the plcs I use basic logic like this:
I transfer a register (ie 40001) with a value of one(1) to a second plc register (40002). the second plc has reg 40002 set at default to 0. When it recieves the value from the 1st plc it changes it to a 1 until the link is broken and the value of 40002 reverts to 0.
I was hoping that a data tag in the redlion would be able to have a default value set and when the the communications to the plc is lost the redlion would revert to that value.
I hope i did not miss it. If i did please someone point me in the right direction, if not this may be a good addition the Crimson 3.0 (wink wink).
Thanks,
Dennis

where n is the device number or name. Then you can easily set alarm triggers for the tag.
