Hello,
I am new to programming plcs and putting the hardware together and would like get advice on how to do this for a Micrologix 1000 project using RSLogix 500. I am using an AB safety relay (MSR210) and a 100S safety contactor. I need to have a door safety sensor notice when a door opens so that the safety relay will tell the safety contactor to shut off a motor that is controlling an up/down motion involving 2 limit switches. I have existing ladder logic for the current operation but I just need to incorporate the safety since there was an operator accident. So, bottom line, I want the motor to shut off if the door is opened during a down / up motion and resume when the door is re-shut. It sounds easy but as I said I am a newbie and at a bit of a loss how to pull everything together.
Thanks in advance for any advice
