Micrologix1100 PLC with rslogix software.
Does anyone know how to use a single turn absolute rotary encoder as if it were a multiturn encoder, i.e. by manipulating plc program?
The single turn encoder is a small cheap 16 ppr, 4bit encoder (due to budget). I am trying to get the program to count the pulses and continue as if it were multi-turn.
I have considered using masked move instruction to extend the bits into a word but I am stuck.
OR is this actually possible?
Any help/guidence would be appreciated.
