    Damn this dude is giving us a full professional-grade many hours long super interesting education virtually for free and still apologizes like 15 times for making a tiny little mistake. I can't even express in words how fucking grateful I am that you're doing this so I will definitely consider the gofundme option and yall guys should too. Thank you for what you're doing

      Hello. Can you please explaing the exact differences between the local # and Global tags %? I did not get the point as you mentioned, "Local tag is only used in this program". Does it mean that this tag cannot be used in other OBs ? The software does not scan and send bit on this tag?

How do u join these two functions. The program is that the tank is controlled by two input signal which is the primary and digital input are backup in case the analog fails.

    • @hegamurl7434
      @hegamurl7434  4 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Hello Asyraaf, quick explanation on those:
      1. InOut: A global tag that you can read and write inside of an FC/FB, has to be connected from the outside when calling the FC/FB
      2. Temp: a temporary tag that can be used for calculations inside the FC/FB. Is created everytime when the FC/FB is called by the PLC (so each cycle) and destroyed each time after leaving the FC/FB to save memory
      3. The return value is rarely used... When it is used it is mostly taken as a feedback to see if the FC/FB was successfully/unsccessfully executed
      Maybe I'll make a video on those in the future, stay tuned!

    • @londonboy9422
      @londonboy9422 11 หลายเดือนก่อน

      An I input refers to an actual input to your plc from a sensor whereas an M input is located only within the plc itself. For instance, it's good practice to link an I input to an M input e.g. if I0.1 is true, make M0.1 true. Then you use M0.1 in your code, if that makes sense. Not sure on the second question.
