Posted 12 Jun 2008 Hi Damo Quadriga is a Dos based software sold by Pantek here in the U.K. The same company that markets Wonderware. All of its functions as far as I can remember are either menu or function key driven. So if you have a particular question can you give more detail.

Posted 12 Jun 2008 yeah thats right they are menu/f key controlled the main thing i am trying to do is add a counter i have got round it at the moment by using a timer which is a crude way but works(not ideal). i had a quick mess with the program last night and added the timer but as i say what i need to do is use a counter but cant find the correct function Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted 12 Jun 2008 Damo The counter do not have a preset as do the timers so you use the function "comp" for your required count value eg >= >< Rodney Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
