This may surprise some of you more seasoned veterans, but I have been programming plcs for 15 years and can remember only one time having to use Flip Flop logic in my program. And actually I didn't even design this logic, I got it from a friend. Well today I found myself needing to do a Flip Flop and figured it would be rather simple, which it is, but after playing around with the logic a little I couldn't come up with a way of doing it that I liked. I thought, hey I will just logon to plcs.net and I will have my answer in seconds. I did get my answer, however it was not in a matter of seconds. I dutifully did my search for flip flop and got lots of hits. However the first 2 or 3 pages were filled mostly with posts containing lots of sarcasm and insults directed at stupid and lazy people who want someone else to do their work for them. I would love to belabor my point here but I need to get back to work. Suffice it to say I think some of you guys need to do the very thing you exhort others to do, which is use the search button, and see what comes up. I did and was unpleasantly surprised with what I got.
By the way, I did get my answer. I found a link, amongst all the stabs, to patchn.com and the example given by Ron. Very simple and works well. Finding it easily is another story.........
