Hello,
I have never programmed a red lion HMI before and i am moderately new to programming (out of college). I have an applied motion STM24QF-3AN stepper motor which i want to have static values set all other than the FL (feed to Length) command which i want input from the HMI. I have made a data entry file in the HMI to enter the # of revolutions i want BUT, i don't know how to scale it (motor is 20,000 steps/rev) so x 20,000 and then send to the FL command to the motor. i have my Motor Enable(ME) and Motor Disable(MD) set up but i am lost on how to send the FL command with the # of turns.
Thanks in advance,
Mike Medcalf
