NB Designer help please

5 posts in this topic

Hi. I'm looking for a way to display on an Omron NB7W HMI, the elapsed time that a machine runs for. So if a machine runs for 6hr 32 minutes the display will be "6:32" It sounds simple but i must be missing something. Can anypne help please?
Kind Regards

Paul

You'll have to use 2 variables and place a ":" in between them.

Each referencing a counter/timer on the PLC or is there something built into the NB?

Yes, each reference a timer/counter/variable. You will likely need to do some pre-formatting/scaling of the values in the PLC as the NB only accepts elementary data types.
