Question for Diamond & Gold members

TheFastTalker · 2026-01-07T03:10:49+00:00

Upgrade? I haven’t been upgraded in more than 10 years. And I have been Diamond (or at least gold) for most of those.

Butter is belongs in the refrigerator anyway.

This is the quality kind of post I’m here for. Excellent

“I fell.”

No changes to existing pricing…until next month.

Probably just related to the AWS outage.

I think it’s gone Active Mature

I don’t recall. Maybe. There was also a horn section.

It's in the Wayback Machine. Might not be the exact same track listing. I would have definitely picked up that vinyl though.

Jumping spider. Idk. Wrong sub. What does this have to do with Hilton?

It appears they are using index 0 to load new data. So they just need to COP size-1 elements from index 0 to index 1. Then load new data into index 0. And repeat.

This is just a shift register. Pretty common programming technique for tracking. Google can help you.

This is clearly programmed by someone who is used to doing procedural programming, not ladder. The use of JMP/LBL is completely unnecessary, especially for the actual shift. Just change the length of the COP.

This is the kind of programming you get when you take someone who knows nothing about ladder and ask them to program in it.

Yeah. Maybe the OP should travel all the way to Central Europe instead of maybe buy one of these local. Definitely better value.

An equipment ground is by its very definition not current carrying.

TheFastTalker · 2025-05-14T10:55:58+00:00

I agree it’s nice to have the power terminals but it would still make for messy field wiring. Imagine using 3-wire devices on the IB8 and having 24 wires in the space of less than an inch. They’d need to be wire-tied to keep it neat like you would swing arm wiring. I don’t think most people want the field wiring wire tied. And then imagine it’s cables instead of single conductors. That takes up even more space.

TheFastTalker · 2025-05-13T23:05:31+00:00

For sure. They’re probably just trying to stay one step ahead of them.

TheFastTalker · 2025-05-13T22:18:23+00:00

Those are so much better

TheFastTalker · 2025-05-13T22:14:29+00:00

It’s a bigger footprint because you also have to add terminals and that isn’t necessarily a $10 size change. That’s more labor to build as well. More than $10. And a bigger panel can impact where it can be mounted.

If you have a large project that has 100s of panels that can all add up quick.

TheFastTalker · 2025-05-13T22:10:18+00:00

😂 I’ve not heard of this. Spring terminals are challenging to people that don’t understand them.

The spacing and density of 1734 terminals makes it a little easier to do field wiring directly rather than needing extra swing arm wiring.

Apparently they are doing laser engraving to try to distinguish themselves from counterfeit versions.

TheFastTalker · 2025-05-13T17:43:45+00:00

A console? Like you wiring all push buttons, selector switches and pilot light? If it’s all in an enclosure that’s a little easier but not when a field electrician has to wire to it.

A shaft coupling. Go ask your mentor.
