Hey all,
I am working on a Logixpro bottle line issue. However, I am trying to remove the bottle line as a whole at the moment and just get down some basic process.
On this conveyor is a "box detecting switch". I think it's a limit switch, but it doesn't really matter. The scenario I am trying to understand is this process:
Switch is on, there is a box here. Switch is off, no box.
So, I want to turn on the conveyor and move from box edge to box edge.
However, 50% of the time the switch is on because there is a box here (while it moves through)
I am struggling with the process/logic to turn on the conveyor (just hit the start button) and move to the next box beginning.
What instructions should I use to accomplish this? I've tried some timers to ignore the switch, I've tried various bit operations, and it seems I cannot get the conditions correct.
Thanks for the pointers.
