PLX XCOMMAND Auto Reset

Is there a way to get my PLM to automatically RESET once the step has finished?

I start the sequence using a button (WriteValue "Start", "DVSYS.322_TKS_RECIRC/XCOMMAND.A_CV") the sequence runs through fine to the end, but I forget to press the reset when I want to run another sequence and I think this might cause problems with the operators as they will also forget, I do get the error window popup which is a reminder but I want to try and avoid this..

I have tried putting an addition step in at the end of the sequence with an action '^/XCOMMAND.CV' := "Reset" but it is not being activated, can anyone advise?

  • Using the same button test whether the sequence is Complete, Stopped or Aborted. When not, message the Operator about the status. When 'yes', message the Operator a Reset was successfull and the Start command will be given.
    Another option could be to create logic in the FBD logicwithin the PLM (view | show FBD) to test the status of the PLM and Reset when appropriate.
