We must be thinking the same......Scary thing is was I went looking through
the motenc_io file. I figured that it was'nt finding what it was looking
for, I copied the files over and renamed them. After getting errors here and
there I finally got it working. The difference is you know what your doing
and I don't. I'm just guessing at this point! I am already an avid ladder
programmer so if I learn how to configure the I/O points, timers and what
not in CL then I should be on my way.....can push buttons be tied to tkemc
through Classic ladder? I am going to need an operator panel with an MPG
(manual pulse generator) or handwheel and pushbuttons.
Thank you for your help.....
Dave
