T4:2 TON Charge Delay = 0.4 second Preset, wait for 0.4 until fill tube is partially extended before energizing Charge Relay. T4:1 TON Fill Tube Extend Timer, 1.1 second Preset, needed to set total time that fill tube is energized, to be extended after conveyor stops with bottle in position. This makes sure that a bottle is not left "hanging" on the Inclined Divert Conveyor (which will break at the next startup). I also used a 4th timer, a TOF, to run the Divert Conveyor 4 seconds after the stop button is pressed. Because you have to stop the conveyor to fill a bottle, then timers are needed for Fill Tube Extend Time, Charge Delay, and Charge Time. The reason is that the encoder should be used to determine the timing for most functions. Only 3 or 4 timers should be used for entire project, including Exercise 6. Yeah harsh but real.Here are some more tips for the Bottle Line Simulator:ġ. I might add that unless you can work your way though the path I just set out for you, you might want to consider a different course of study. It's not rocket science! Take some time, learn the basics, then come back with some constructive questions and you will have tons of people tripping over themselves to help you here (unless you have destroyed that with your previous attitude).


I also pointed out that you could run your program 1 scan at a time to figure out how it works. I pointed out an area that you might want to look at in your program. This site right here has tons of info in or out of the forum. You are welcome to visit my sites if you want - they are all free. There are all kinds of resources on the net that can help you LEARN this stuff. Oh well that just means you have to work harder to learn. I would bet that anyone that has any college (or other) class experience has had a poor instructor. You are taking a class and you have to do what it takes to do the work or drop the class or fail.

The old post you saw was really a mistake and, if you read it, was only posted becuase the poster was short on time. Ok, As it has been stated - nobody is going to do it for you.
