Hello all,
I am beginning my travels in designing a system with compact guardlogix controller and a planelview plus 7 standard HMI.
I have 3 valve trains, and each has 3 valves, 2 NC and 1 NO (Upstream, downstream, and Vent)
I want to make an AOI that will cycle these valves 20 times and do it with a safety AOI in a safety routine, however some of the inputs are standard and need to be mapped.
I have been on the phone with tech connect a few times and have a loose understanding of how this is done, by making "intermediary arrays to store bits and then move them to the standard side for outputting results of the test.
I would just like to make sure that IT IS POSSIBLE, basically. To use AOIs with their own UDT in a safety program and pass the data back and fourth as needed. And any tips on how to do it modularly would be greatly appreciated.
I currently have about 80% of the program and structure written, and time is starting to run out and I want to make sure im not headed towards a brick wall.
Thanks again and happy Monday
