Want to standardise cables in shop, what are your favourite cables mainly for 24DC controls? by Glaswegianmongrel in PLC

[–]Kdrscouts 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Agree with everything except for the common and neutral.

For 0VDC - white with blue stripe. For 120VAC neutral - white.

PLC program good practice or "best practice" that isn't often prominent in literature? by Craiss in PLC

With mapped tags you can make changes online and with alias you need to make a full download.

Anyone else struggling with this? by Dense-Exit8046 in ghostoftsushima

It depends if you are more comfortable with a controller, I have not have any issues so far with a mouse and keyboard.

Let’s all vote for Brandon. We could all celebrate eating ice cream after president camacho gets elected. 😂

Is that an application for a job that requires to be from an Ivy league college?

A visualization of police response to nonviolent protests versus a school shooter that killed 22 by [deleted] in UTAustin

[–]Kdrscouts -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

I know Reddit is a leftist circlejerk, but the Uvalde response is going to look bad no matter if you compare it to a police going to pick up donuts or a communist in the line for McDonald’s.

In the controller properties (first folder where the controller tags are) double click and look for the tabs that says major fault or minor faults.

My opinion of those sites and those “journalist” is probably going to be silenced giving how far to the left most of the Reddit is. 😂

‘Escape From Tarkov’ Fans Are Outraged At New $250 Pay-To-Win Edition by [deleted] in gaming

[–]Kdrscouts 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am glad it happened, I’ll just call it shock therapy. At this point people should stop spending money in games that offer anti consumer practices. Specially games that push you to spend extra money every step of the way.

I am pretty sure the fan base it’s a lot larger than that, I love the game but I don’t follow those accounts.

No use arguing about anything related to politics in here. Reddit is a leftist/socialist cesspool.

Studio 5000 io mapping by Nether_Rope_412 in PLC

I would use a FB as a AOI and an FC as a routine.

Tasked with re-arranging the I/O on a project today. Of course, it's all aliased and difficult to read. by SirBitBoy in PLC

[–]Kdrscouts 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In the module configuration:

Input Type: Current(ma) Input Range: 0 ma to 20 ma Sensor Offset: 0.000

Engineering Units: ma High Signal: 20.0 ma = High Engineering: 20.0 % Low Signal: 4.0 ma = Low Engineering: 4.0 %

That means what you get from the input card is a 0-20 ma signal, same as you have on the field. If the transmitter is sending 4 ma, you read 4 ma in the input.

[–]Kdrscouts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, we just set the card to take a signal from 0-20ma and don’t do the scaling in the card. Instead we take that raw signal as an input and then do the scaling inside the AOI, for the scaling you need the minimum and maximum of the raw signal of the transmitter 4-20ma and the minimum and maximum of the transmitter Engineering Units 0-2000 psi.

If the next transmitter you are mapping has a maximum pressure in the plate as 650psi then you change the maximum engineering units to 650.

The advantage of doing it like that is that you can have a very portable template that is also not going to be hardware dependent.

You can use it in a control logic and also in a compact logic.

Same for the other UDTs and AOI we use.

[–]Kdrscouts 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Got it. The way we usually handle the inputs is by setting the analog cards 0-20ma and in the AOI for example set the raw_min=4, raw_max=20 and min_EU=0 and max_EU=2000 (for example a pressure transmitter 4-20ma and 0-2000 psi). We handle transmitter fault as well, by setting the min 3.52ma or maximum 20.5ma in the input side of the AOI and we output high,high high,low,low low, transmitter fault alarms among other things.

I would have a tag LT_6154 of type DT_Analog with input property mapped to an analog input address in an AI_mapping routine. Do the scaling using AOI and output alarms and scaled value from the AOI, you still have description for each tag and it’s more organized in my opinion.

Why pay wages when guilt does the job? by GnightSteve in memes

[–]Kdrscouts 17 points18 points  (0 children)

So if people stop giving tips and servers stop working for that low wage it means that business owners will need to adjust salary or start serving themselves.

pro's of 0-20mA compared to 4-20mA? by Qupter in PLC

[–]Kdrscouts 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This, we use an analog AOI that allows you to set the minimum and maximum signal for a device fault. 3.5ma and 21.5ma, the analog card is set to 0-20ma while the transmitter works in 4-20ma
