I am working on a conveyor control that uses an AB plc. We need to get this on our ethernet network and I intend to replace the plc with a DL205. This machine was manufactured in 1988 and the plc is large but not labeled. I have a paper copy of the current program. My question is about the timer status contacts. For example timer 042 status contacts are addressed as 042.15 and 042.17 . Does anyone know the meaning of these status bits?
