Hi guys,
This is not an assignment.
I am facing this challenge:
• Four pumps
• They could come up in any order
• Count how many pumps are on
• Count how many flow meters inlet valves are open
• If the flow goes past a certain value (High Flow alarm) shut the last pump down
My challenge is only the last item (Identifying the last pump so I can shut it down if the flow goes too high).
I know how to specify the last pump that came on. The issue is that I think I have to do a lot of repetitive logic. I also really want to avoid the indirect addressing as the customer just doesn’t like it. Basically, I am looking for a hint to avoid doing too many lines in SLC. would time stamping the start time and comparing with the others be a good idea???
I already started with my repetitive logic anyways but it just isn't the smart way to this task.
Thanks,
Always a learner
