Scenario:
I just started PLC programming and started a traffic light project and currently using RSLogix 5000 and FactoryTalk View Studio.
The current moment, I finished my PLC coding and the logic works correctly without the FactoryTalk View Studio. I started integrating it into the FactoryTalk View Studio. I am using a multistate indicator in the Factory Talk View Studio, which will change states from 0 (green), 1 (yellow), 2 (red).
I have a tag Indicator which is both inside the RsLogix 5000 and FactoryTalk View Studio.
The problem is that the destination will only store one number. I was wondering if there was a solution to this? For example, if i make separate Mov functions, to move the source into the destination, each destination tag will have the same number (the multistate indicator has only one tag). I would like to make the destination have different numbers ranging from 0-2.
Am i using the wrong function? Is there a way to store different numbers in the destination rather then the set number when you first create the mov function?
