Hey guys,
Apologies for being a new poster and not contributing before I needed help my self. Any way for my Uni Project I'm trying to use PLC's. Basically I've used Mitsubishi before and they were really easy and simple to set up. Now i am trying to use a MicroLogix 1100 (college provided) and have stumbled at every hurdle (all new to me and trying to self teach I guess its not hard just new)!
Where i need your help is, I have finally got to hooking up the 1100, but in RSlogix 500 and Lite software, it's picking up that it's a MicroLogix 1100 Series A but it's only saying there are 6 Inputs and 4 Outputs which is incorrect as i have a 1763-L16BWA which has 12 inputs, 2 being analogue and then 6 outputs. Now going on I/O Config and pressing Adv Config I can't edit how many inputs and outputs! Having skimmed the internet and this site I can't find any answers, so how do I use the other Inputs/Outputs?
The main importance of this is that for my project i was hoping to use all Outputs and one of the Analogue Inputs!
Thanks
