Folks,
A basic beginner with a small problem but huge problem.
I need to monitor the 'run time' of 3 separate engines, then compare and shut down the engine with the highest 'run time'.
I have completed some small basic programs using rto timers but cant understand how i will be able to compare 3 values as i believe most basic plcs only use a compare with 2 inputs.
any basic tips to help out?
Its my first attempt at this, started off with an allen bradley micrologix500 but as i only have 8-10 inputs a friend is pushing me towards the telemechanque zelio 'smart relay' application.
