I have an Compact Logix L33 communicating with a MT(Metler Toledo) IND131.
I need to writ PLC code for dispensing product. I have a hopper that has the cpacity of 680 lbs of product.
I may need up to 1280 lbs of product. Since the hopper doesn't hold that much weight. Does anyone have sample PLC code to accomplish this.
Here is my thoughts and I am not getting it figured out in the PLC code.
Target weight: 1280 lbs
Hopper Capacity: 680 lbs
Tare scale
Dispense 680 lbs into hopper.
Store 680 lbs
Empty hopper
Subtract 680 from 1280 = 600
Never have done this before and trying to figure out how to do it.
Thank you,
