I want to change my vision system program using a micrologix plc. The vision system uses binary inputs, bits 0 thru 7 to determine program #. I want to move N7:3(program # selected in Panelview 800) to O:0.0 word (Micrologix 1200). Vision inputs bit 0 thru bit 7 are wired to Outputs O:0/7 to O:0/14. Using a MVM instruction, I cannot get it to work. If the Vision inputs are wired to PLC outputs O:/0 to O:0/7, all works great on my test unit. The PLC I will be using has a few bad outputs so I had to start at a different address than
O:0/0. I tried using a Multiply instruction (N7:3 times 128 to scale it up, but that didn't work. I know this is kind of long and I have probably missed some details, but I would appreciate any help.
