I have X103 & X105 if X103 is ON when X105 switches ON, then I need to throw a fault. if X103 is OFF when X105 Switches ON then no action is required. any ideas on how to solve this?

    Ron,

    I'm not sure what you mean by "throw a fault " but what you describe is an "AND " situation. If X103 is ON AND X105 is ON then set an output ON.

    Ron,

    I'm not sure what you mean by "throw a fault " but what you describe is an "AND " situation. If X103 is ON AND X105 is ON then set an output ON.

    in this case I would turn an output off for a few seconds.

    the trick is in the fact that it has to be based on Sequence.

    I can do the AND situation ok, but i am having a problem with the sequence

    I think I see what you are saying: if X103 is on and then X105 is switched ON then ERROR; if X105 is ON and then X103 is switched ON then NO ERROR. Is this correct?

    100% correct!

    I'll give this a shot. I think the below will work, but I don't have a PLC handy to test it with.

    STR X103

    ANDSTR X105

    STRNOT C1

    OUT Y1 (Fault)

    STR X105

    STRNOT Y1

    OUT C1

    will the above work with a "click " PLC???

    I figured it out, I just used simple logic, it will work a little different

    than in the LOGO! program but it will do the job!!

    That should be an AND circuit. In ladder AND is series. If X103 is on & X105 then you get the result you mentioned. A NAND would be 2 NC in series

    X103 X105 FAULT WHEN X103 AND X105 ARE ON

    ---------| |----------| |-------------()

    This is a NAND

    ---------|\|----------|\|-------------(Y?)
