Hi all, attached you will see my attempted to make a pulse input simulator using RSlogix500. I am trying to use a TON timer to make a storage bit to be mapped across as an input to simulate a proximity sensor pulse input, using a flip/flop arrangement. Currently the bit doesn’t seem to be pulsing at a regular period? I wish to use something like this test conveyor type programs for under speed/stall/jam scenario. I know some PLC have a pulse generator as an option but have not been able to see one for RSlogix500 (but then l have only had a MAN look). An easy means of altering the pulse speed/time would be useful
I’m sure this may be a back to front method of doing what l want, so your criticism of my work will be appreciated or a better working example, put forward from the forum would be gladly used.
Regards
