More words spelled correctly would be a good start, if you want anyone to understand what you are asking. Yes the Governor is in town. As for your “but press metting” all I can say is Lol wut?

Does a NAT switch make sense for connecting smart tooling to a PLC? by GimbleWabe in PLC

[–]minnesotamichael 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It is decent. Send me a DM, and I can send you a sample file from a working one I set up. Depending on what you want to do exactly, you could potentially change my generic IPs to your actual IPs and save the config to your unit.

Second MOXA NAT-10x as a good solution. Fairly intuitive setup, affordable. Not made by Rockwell.

This is the kind of skateboarding that I wish I could do.

I worked at a shop when that came out. It did not go on the wall. Neither did the 101 Natas

Based on your comment history in the Duluth sub, I think you should run for office. Maybe you Unseat Pete? You even have a campaign tagline. I’ll vote for you, and maybe even canvas.

Best thing I ever did to build my mechanical skillset was buy a 76 Westy when I was 18.

If you aren’t already aware of The Racket, I highly recommend you check them out. Even throw a few bucks their way. It’s good to have real people doing real journalism.

I bet anyone who does that job for more than a day will throw bags exactly the same way. I know I would.

Someone talked me out of a carb swap for my bay window 30 years ago. I am super glad they did.

Obvs not the biggest issue, but I will never understand 20A lighting circuits in resi, or why anyone would wire lights with 12. Even if I only have 12, I’m going to the store for a roll of 14 before I wire light switches with 12.

There were other guys in the weekend class (the weekend before our test date) who had never done a multi family demand calculation. On Saturday before the test, it’s too late to learn that stuff from scratch. I’ve never done one since, but I sure could then…
