    Hello there! I am just a few minutes into this and here is my first post. Hopefully this works out! I am very new to Allen Bradley programming.

    Anyway, I am trying to replace 4 proximity switches with a laser. The laser needs to be able to tell the RSLogix5 to execute at 4 different positions.

    System Information:

    1. RSLogix5
    2. 16 channel analog input card
    3. Input card:  1771-IFE Series C
    4. 4-20 mA signal scaled to 0"-50"

    Ive done some digging and cant seem to find a great way to scale an analog signal in RSLogix5.  So far, all Ive come up with is to make 4 different 'LIM' blocks to create a range that matches the existing proximity switches.

    Any help is great help! Hopefully I provided enough information. If more is needed please let me know!
