Newbie here - I'm working on a project for a class and experiencing problems with getting my proximity sensor to activate a solenoid.
I'm using a DL06 koyo PLC. I've already tested this with a normal light switch and when I programmed everything (using ladder logic) I was able to get the light switch to activate the solenoid. Now when I hook up the proximity sensor, I can see the proximity sensor is on, but when I program it in ladder logic, nothing happens.
Proximity switch wiring:
Black: input on plc
Blue: 0v -
Brown: 24v +
If I get lucky and receive some replies, I can also attach a rough wiring diagram to help with explaining this.
