Red Lion Crimson 3 Pushbuttons

Hey folks, I have a question on Crimson 3 pushbuttons, I am using a G15 HMI. I have 6 pushbuttons that select the number of straps for the auto bale strapper control. Just wondering if there is an easy way to set up the HMI so that when one pushbutton is pressed while another is selected that the previously selected button goes false and the new one selected goes true.

I have tried to do it with IF statements but that doesn't seem to be working within the individual tags.

Any quick ideas?

When using the If statements, are you sure that you are calling upon your script correctly to execute it?

I think so;

if (To_PLC_65419.Strapper_Manual_Feed = 1){

To_PLC_65419.Straps5_11in = 0;
To_PLC_65419.Straps7_8in = 0;
To_PLC_65419.Straps9_6in = 0;
To_PLC_65419.Straps9_8inD = 0;
To_PLC_65419.Straps11_6inD = 0;}

if (To_PLC_65419.Straps5_11in = 1){

To_PLC_65419.Strapper_Manual_Feed = 0;
To_PLC_65419.Straps7_8in = 0;
To_PLC_65419.Straps9_6in = 0;
To_PLC_65419.Straps9_8inD = 0;
To_PLC_65419.Straps11_6inD = 0;}

Its been a while since I've used Red Lion, but I remember you have to call upon your script to run. It doesn't just constantly execute. I Believe you have to go to the tag that you want to trigger your script, and under Triggers you set trigger mode (active on), and action (general) then the name of your program with () after it. Something like scriptprogramnamehere(). There was also a way to execute it with an ontick() command which would execute the code once a second, but that was problematic for me.

Conditional logic should not be required for this. In your button properties, set the Action to User Defined, and the On Pressed action to Complex. In the editor that comes up, put code like this:

To_PLC_65419.Strapper_Manual_Feed := 1;
To_PLC_65419.Straps5_11in = 0;
To_PLC_65419.Straps7_8in = 0;
To_PLC_65419.Straps9_6in = 0;
To_PLC_65419.Straps9_8inD = 0;
To_PLC_65419.Straps11_6inD = 0;

In the other buttons, put similar code but just change the locations of the ones and zeros as appropriate.

That's great I will give it a try.

Thanks guys.
