Hello,
I currently have an application where i need to reject poor quality product which is inspected using a vision system. The product travels on a conveyor. I set up some logic that used the fail signal from the camera to load a bit into a shift register which would trigger a reject pusher further down the conveyor. This worked fine except i used the next product present signal under the camera to shift the bit through the register(BSR logix 500), hence when i get any gap between the follow on products i fail to trigger the reject. Could i use an encoder to control the rejects. If so does anyone know how. Thanks for any help in advance.
