Hello everyone.
I have a compactlogix controller that needs to operate about 40 solenoids in a water park to control the water jets.
The customer wants all the jets to be in a sequence so I set a timebase and I create a data table for each solenoid so that I can turn the solenoid on and off in a timed sequence.Now my problem is this: each solenoid has about 250 starts and 250 stops, all at varying times, depending on the sequence that the customer chooses. Up to now I have been creating data arrays in the compactlogix, but I would like to know if anyone knows of a way to design a user friendly interface to enter all this numbers? Maybe something the customer can use himself ( scada, hmi , spreadsheet)?
The time taken to write all this numbers is too long
Any help greatly appreciated.
