Thank you! this really is the first time I see a PLC video explained in such detail and not in Hindu or Hindu/English, you just helped me kill a portion of my final project for my Automation class!
Thank you so much for this video! I tried making my own flashing light in my PLC class the other day. It worked and the teacher said that it was just fine (it wasn’t really the focus of the project) but it was just briefly coming on and I really want to be able to make it work well. I’m having a hands on midterm today where I know I will need a flashing light and I wanted to make one that flashes exactly how I want it to and seeing it in RSLogix is super helpful seeing as how that’s what our PLCs at the school use! I think you accidentally said timer one when you meant timer zero a couple of times, but because you had everything visually organized so well I knew, almost instantly, what you meant. Again- thank you!
I did exactly the same thing with a normally closed stop button (with xic), a normally open start button (with xic) and an internal bit as an output, sealed in. It worked perfectly. Then I tried doing the same thing but instead of the seal in I tried using the (L) and (U). It didn't work..... should I use a -|/|- XIO for the stop in this case?? Can you do this example?
I do this a little different. I set up a timer set to 1000 ms with the xio dn bit to keep it reseting, then I branch around the timer with a LIM test instruction set to 0-500 with the timer-acc being the test, then the output behind the LIM. Same result just a different way.
What I don't understand is why is there an examine if open instruction at the beginning for the timer off? Cause it looks like if the second timer is done then the examine if open instruction will never be true so it won't enable the first timer ever again. Basically it's hard to interpret logically off our head....

best video I ever saw about blinking leds. For other software you just need to add another line and copy this code. Good job!
thank you
WOW first time i saw a video of PLC that was presented well by a woman. keep it up the nice work.
Thank you so much for this video!

I am glad it helped you
This helped me put quite a bit, thanks
Helpful video for every PLC learner .
Very well done. Thank you!!❤❤❤
Very nice.it is very helpful to me.kindly upload more video.Thank you.
I hope my future wife knows all this so we can have plc conversations during dinner LOOL. Very nice video!
Awesome stuff, thank you so much!
My pleasure!
I like the multivibrator approach.
that was helpful! thanks !!
good discussion .thanks
It help me a lot thank you
you're welcome

But what I see frequency is not equal
I thought the same but it works well on a physical output , just like a car blinker light
NO AUDIO ????
"This timebase is not allowed on this processor" I'm using Micrologix 1000. bummer!
