Hi all!
Is there a way in PanelBuilder32 to disable a push button when certain conditions are true. The machine I am working on is a five station drilling machine. Each of the units are servo driven and controlled through a Trio motion controller. The spindles on the units are controlled by a SLC 5/03. The screen is a Panelview 600 touch screen. There is a button on the screen to turn off the spindle motors and I want to disable the button while the units are cycling so the operators don't crash and break the drills. They have already done it once! The operator decided to clean the screen while the machine was in auto cycle and ended up hitting that button. Broke three of the five sets of drills! Not a good thing! I have been reading the PanelBuilder manual but haven't been able to find anything on this yet. I will keep reading but any help that you can give me would be great. Thanks in advance.
