Hi All,
Have just registered so this is my first post. I have a question relating to the best or easiest method of handling error messages arising out of Fault flags being set. I wish to address these in the order they arise.
Perhaps I should start by descibing the task in brief.
FX3UC CPU with 4 CH A-D and RS232 Comms module out to VFD 4 Line 20 CHarHMI Display.
Task = Monitor Qty 3 of 4-20mA inputs and 3 digital inputs and set alarms at different levels of inputs. To date 11 possible fault combinations exist which are stored in D22 which is used as a fault register, each bit representing a different fault.
Remote possiblity exists that two faults may appear simultaneously.Some of the faults require a reset button to be pressed after fault correction which would presumably reset a bit in the fault register. but while we are waiting for the reset to be pressed I still need to add new faults to the register as they arise. Each fault requires a message output to the HMI Display. Currently using the RS instruction to do this.
Has anyone got any suggestions please?
Many thanks
