If I have a PLC in machine A and I want it to give an input to machine B then I want to trigger an output in machine A based on the condition and Fire a relay that will close contacts and deliver power sourced from machine B to Machine B PLC input.
This works well for us for PLC's that don't have compatible communications but MY question is what's the best place to put the physical relay? I assume Machine A but then I have to mark that power from another source is in that panel when the disconnect is off. I have to mark the panel like that either way because if I put the relay in machine B when the disconnect is off it could still have live power from machine A if the output that fires the realy is energized.
What is the best placeemnt method?
