Hi, everyone !
I'm developing an application on a SLC 5/03 PLC and I'm trying to implement a functionality that I'm having some trouble with.
Basically in this application the user can through the supervisory system select which valves should be opened or closed and which pumps should be turned on or turned of by selecting one of many elements of a ring control and pressing an OK button. When the user does this the PLC sets or resets the respective outputs corresponding to the valves and pumps related to the element selected of the ring control and, on the supervisory system, the associated elements , i.e, valves, pumps and pipes change color to indicate their current status to the operator.
The problem that arises is a result of the fact that I want to command these valves and pumps not only through the ring control but also by clicking on them on the supervisory screen. Since I used OTL ( SET ) and OTU (RESET) instructions to implement what was described in the previous paragraph that's the reason of my problem.
If anyone could lend me a hand and show me how I could do this I would be deeply appreciated.
Thanks anyway,
Giovany
