Good morning all!
First time poster, long time reader/member,low to medium programing experience...
My problem is programing a simple auto indexing CCW rotation index table (has operator input for cycle start) for Mitsi control (Fx1N).....
(10) stations as follows:
#1 oper load
#2 empty
#3 Photoeye sees (or not sees) part
#4 First action station
#5 Second action station
#6 Third action station
#7 empty
#8 Action station (finished part pick off)
#9 & #10 empty
My ONLY inputs (customer requirement) are part present @ Sta #3, which is my X7, and "table in position", my X26....
Every part that's seen @ Sta #3 must be acted on @ Sta. #4 and then either of Sta. 5 or 6 (part dependant, operator switches between X22 and X23)...Sta. 8 (the pick off) can operate with each index, but sure would look better if it only cycled when a part was present there.
When Sta #3 has seen a part and Sta. 4 has acted on it, Sta 4 (or 5) MUST act on it.
In a perfect world, somebody could/would direct me to existing ladder that incorporated a shift register of some sort, showing me where I could/should start with this.
If anybody's got anything for us on this, I sure would be greatfull...thanks much...GPDC
