Hi,

I connected a Keyence SR-X100 to a motoman YRC-1000 and configured the scanner to connect via ethernet. I can trigger the output from the controller to start the scan sequence and while watching through AutoID Network Navigator I can see the barcode scanner gets a good read from the barcode.

How do I get that info into the pendant so I can use that? I have 16 different barcodes and depending on what number comes from the barcode I want to run a different program. I could easily do IF IN#(2000) = Part number Call job: 1, etc but how do i get that info from the barcode reader?

wowzers - apparently there is a timer function right in the pulse function..... good to go

I currently want to pulse output #13 which is 10024 in the ladder. The universal output for this is 30044. Currently in the ladder its just ties 10024 to 30044 but i want to keep output 13 on for 4 seconds when i pulse it in the program. Is there a way to do this??

Basically right now i have the program fire the output, have a 4 second timer while the equipment closes, and then it moves on but every second matters in this particular process and I know there must be a way in the ladder to hold that output on for 4 seconds after it is pulsed.

thanks

Hi,

I have 2 buttons that I want to use to select different programs

When button A is pushed IN#0001 (IG#00010) lights up, wen button B is pressed IN#0002 (IG#00011) lights up

The input does not stay on when the button is released. How can I use these inputs as my program selection in my master program?

Edit 1: I was able to get the input to change B020 to either 1 or 2 with

DIN B020 IG#(1)

The issue is i dont want to have to hold the button. Once pressed I want B020 to change and stay at any time, not just if the button is pressed when command DIN B020 IG#(1) comes by.

thanks
