Hi,
Just need help with implementing a logic that will help me keep track of the amount of water an operator requests during his batching operation.
Currently, during a batch operation, operator adds water. when water reaches amount called by operator the valve shuts. Flowmeter tells me how much water was added in the tank and i display this value on HMI.
What i am trying to do now is to keep track and display about 5 values of how much water was added in tank so an operator can see it and not overflow the tank by calling for more water than the tank can handle during a batch.
So, they start a batch, add X liter water, operator can see: X
Later on, after adding ingredients, they add Y liter, operator can see both X and Y.
If they need to add Z liter again, operator will see : X , Y, Z display.
So that knowing its a 10000 liter tank, they should not call for water so that X+Y+Z is greater that 10000 liter.
Thanks
