Hi Akahige Thank you for your input, it´s very much appriciated. I am currently using the PLC and the Blink Expression method you are asking about, but it´s only making the outer edge of the (ON) & (OFF) button´s blink and would like the whole button to blink with color change, examplewise from gray to green...? Right now, I have the buttons working as described in my post from earlier, but I can´t figuar out how to programe the HMI, when it comes to keeping the Valve buttons lighted up, indicating if it is (valve 1 - mode), that´s was activated by pressing the (ON) button, or (valve 2 - mode)? Current Button set-up below: Unactivated:                                          (Valve 1)    (ON)    (OFF)    (Valve 2) Valve 1 pressed:                                   (Valve 1)    (ON)    (OFF)    (Valve 2)         (ON & OFF) blinking, while (Valve 1) lights up ON is pressed:                                       (Valve 1)    (ON)    (OFF)    (Valve 2)        (Valve 1) Stops lighting up, after (ON) is pressed, so operator can not see what mode was activated.                                                                                                                                         I need (Valve 1) to keep it´s light on after (ON) button has been pressed, as shown below? Needed Button set-up: Unactivated:                                          (Valve 1)    (ON)    (OFF)    (Valve 2) Valve 1 pressed:                                   (Valve 1)    (ON)    (OFF)    (Valve 2)         (ON & OFF) blinking, while (Valve 1) lights up On is pressed, valve 1 mode active:  (Valve 1)    (ON)    (OFF)    (Valve 2)         (Valve 1) keeps lighting up, after (ON) is pressed, so operator can see what mode was activated.                                                                                                                                          Ex.wise, valve 2 mode active: Unactivated:                                          (Valve 1)    (ON)    (OFF)    (Valve 2) Valve 2 pressed                                    (Valve 1)    (ON)    (OFF)    (Valve 2) ON is pressed:                                      (Valve 1)    (ON)    (OFF)    (Valve 2)                            Dealing with this by using the HMI, would be prefered, but if easier with PLC, then we´ll go in that direction? Hope you can help me with the abowe, before the weekend is all over.) Thank you again A. 

Hi Guys I was wondering if any one of you could tell me how to set up some basic button functions? I need a basic instruction on how the followering button setup, could be done on the HMI, preferable with exaples or tutorials etc. !!! I´m working with the current setup: NX1P2, using Sysmac Studio, Module version 1.25.1.0, along with a NA5-Terminal, version 1.18 !!!  START_VALVE_1_BUTTON = Toggle, Momentary, Set or ?? - (Need the START_VALVE_1_BUTTON to activate ON_BUTTON & OFF_BUTTON flashing, indicating selection option, ON or OFF, meaning activating start valve 1 mode, or deactivate the mode). START_VALVE_2_BUTTON = Toggle, Momentary, Set or ?? - (Need the START_VALVE_2_BUTTON to activate ON_BUTTON & OFF_BUTTON flashing, indicating selection option, ON or OFF, meaning activating start valve 2 mode, or deactivate the mode). ON_BUTTON = Toggle, Momentary, Set or ?? - (Need the OK_BUTTON & the OFF_BUTTON to flash simoustaniously, after START_VALVE_1_BUTTON, or START VALVE_2_BUTTON has been pushed). OFF_BUTTON = Toggle, Momentary, Set or ?? - (Need the ON_BUTTON & the OFF_BUTTON to flash simoustaniously, after START_VALVE_1_BUTTON, or START VALVE_2_BUTTON has been pushed).  !!! Hoping to hear BACK from some of you VERY soon, because I need the know_how ASAP. !!! !!! Write soon !!!
