    Hello everyone, i have a question about a kind of output.

    I have a PLC Compactlogix L23E QBFC1B and the last module the high speed counter has outputs

    I want to use one of the outputs as a regular one

    However, it shows me a lot of kind of outputs, which one should I use as a regular digital output?

    Manual is at https://www.keyence.com/mykeyence/downloadFromDLList?downloadAssetId=AS_105751&downloadZipFlag=0
    Registration is required.
    The applicable information starts at page 59
    Flow rate is on word 4 of instance 100.

    Those are 16 bit words so your data type would be N (micrologix) or INT (contrologix) . The decimal point will not be present so you'll have to shift it according to how many decimal points you set up in KV Studio on the unit.

    devices can be made to function *almost* like an I/O connection on EtherNet/IP by using CIP Generic "Read Assembly" and "Write Assembly" message (MSG) instructions in a MicroLogix 1100

    Since you'll be reading the assebly 100 with a MSG block you'll have to setup a trigger to create a i/o cycle for it.
    I suggest XIC s4/12

    Can you eplaint it to me, how to create the trigger?
