Hello, all! I'm just getting started with PLCs and am attempting to design a ladder diagram with the following stipulations:
Input: 1 Push-button
Outputs: 2 Bulbs
When the push-button is pressed, the first bulb turns on. If the push-button is pressed again within 3 seconds of the first press, the first bulb turns off and the second bulb turns on. The second bulb will turn off after the next press of the push-button (regardless of time), and both bulbs will be off. If the push-button is pressed 3 seconds after the first press, the first bulb turns off, and both bulbs will be off.
I have attempted using both counting and timing functions but have been unsuccessful in finding the correct design. I am designing in a program called "Connected Components Workbench." Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!
