SLC 5/03 with a relay output card.
I have an output that I need to drive with lots of different conditions. First, I tried to put the output coil on each of my rungs, then I read not to do that. I have it set up now where each rung sets the same bit when it comes true, then that bit drives the output. With this setup, when one of the rungs comes true, the output will come on, but when the other comes true, it won't turn the output on. Am I going to have to have a different bit for each rung, then have all of them in parallel to drive the output? If so, that is going to be a major pain because I need this program to be expandable in the future.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
