I think you are confusing Mitsubishi PLC programming with .Net or Java etc.  There are no instances of objects created or destroyed (no reference types so nothing to garbage collect). When you use VAR_INPUT_OUTPUT  its not referencing the variable but copying its value, then using it, then copying the result back to the original variable.   As other have said the timer needs to be scanned all the time – no different than ladder. It's the same in other PLC's as well. For example below is a timer in Allen Bradley ST. If you commented out (or deleted) the timer on line 2 the timer would stop working.   1.       DelayPumpStart.PRE := 5000; 2.       TONR(DelayPumpStart); 3.       DelayPumpStart.TimerEnable := ValveOpen_Verified_V45LEX;

Why do you want to use 0-10V? The A800 should accept 4-20mA as a signal input (you would need to change the parameters as well as the voltage/current switch then apply the 4-20mA on terminals 4&5).   If you really want to use 0-10V you could (as I mentioned in an earlier reply) use the 0-10V output of the first inverter as the reference speed for the second inverter using terminals AM & 5. Regards  

I am assuming you want to give the same speed reference signal to both inverters. If that is the case, then yes, it is possible. Just set the Inverters up to use 4-20mA as the speed input and wire the 4-20mA in series with both inverters. You can often achieve the same result by feeding the 4-20mA output of one inverter into the 4-20mA input of the other (you can also ratio the speeds this way).     Regards  

HmiConverterGui.exe View File Program to convert Mitsubishi / Beijer E1000 projects to Beijer Exter projects (and back again if required). This can actually be done by modifying the main project text file and the re-naming it but as the company I work for has nearly a thousand E1000 series on site I thought I would write a small app to do it.     Submitter Nightfly Submitted 12/30/17 Category Demo Software

I agree - absolutly the quickest and easiest way to do this. Simple to set up and bulletproof.  

  from http://www.chipkin.com/hubs-vs-switches-using-wireshark-to-sniff-network-packets/ A switch will never forward 'other' traffic (traffic that is not directed to your ethernet mac address + broadcast) to your port unless you tell it to do so. So, if you did not configure a mirror port on the switch, you will only see this kind of traffic. your own traffic traffic to multicast and/or broadcast addresses Please read the following Wiki article: http://wiki.wireshark.org/CaptureSetup/Ethernet   Basically you need an old hub not a switch (or a programmed managed switch) - personally I bought an old Netgear DS104 hub to use with wireshark which works great.

Personally I would do this but leave all inputs as flags within the program and then simply at the beginning of the program map the physical inputs to the ones declared as flags. I'ts then easier to simulate inputs for testing etc. Same if you need to change your IO around. The program becomes independent of it's physical I/O.  

I personally find structured text is much easier (and clearer) to use when dealing with arrays/indexes With “Dollies” declared as a zero based array of 1000 int’s starting at ZR60000  [0..999] and “CarrierID” declared as an Int and D990 has a value 888   When “CarrierID” has a value of 0 then the statement... Dollies[CarrierID] := D990 would put the value of 888 into ZR60000   When “CarrierID” has a value of 123 then the statement... Dollies[CarrierID] := D990 would put the value of 888 into ZR60123   When “CarrierID” has a value of  990 then the statement... Dollies[CarrierID] := D990 would put the value of 888 into ZR60990

None at all

Does you PLC have a CC-Link module attached? This is a module that allows the PLC to talk to other PLC's or control remote I/O.
