I have a program for FX3U plc that is using nesting. The nests are selected by "tooling flags" and only one nest is used at a time. I programmed nest one earlier this year and it worked fine. I added nest 2 last week and the machine worked fine with either "tool" being used. I have programmed the third nest and started debugging today. This particular nest uses a bunch of timers and some of them don't seem to be working right. I have got into the higher number timers and find that they are retentive timers and have to be reset which I haven't programmed yet. Reading the manual, it says that timer number that are not used can be used for data storage. Does this mean that the data locations I am using cannot be used for timers? If I am using D80 to D83, can I not have T80 to T83?
Thanks in advance.
