Hi All, Is there an internal bit that cycles on/off that I can use to control an output for a flashing indicator light?
Mitsubishi Melsec FX-48MR plc.
Thanks
Dean
Yes there is. It has been a long time since I have done anything with Mitsubishi, but the bit you will need is addressed with 'S'. S47... and S51 comes to mind, but may not be what you need. There are several that have a toggling property, whether it is a alternating scan toggle, on every other scan (too fast for controlling pilot lights) and timed scans, ie... 500ms, 1sec, 1min, etc. I will look into it for ya. Here is a good site for their basic PLC manual: http://cc.bingj.com/cache.aspx?q=mi...5&mkt=en-US&setlang=en-US&w=4286b1df,d569d05d
Try these links, If you have any programming manuals, a detailed list of each step relay and special relay should be in there somewhere. Someone else is bound to respond that has ongoing experience with MELSEC. It's been a while since I have played with them. Sorry I wasn't more help!
