Hello, I have a question about programming conveyor using OPC UA. I can't figure out which variables are responsible for setting the speed and direction of the conveyor. When choosing Emulation, I choose the pipeline and processor, there are no differences when creating variables. Tell me what variables are responsible for setting the speed and direction of the conveyor, or where can I read about it?
@alexandr.b, do you still need help with this? I would recommend looking at the conveyor API reference. There are some commands there that can set the speed of the conveyor. If you want to switch directions, you can set a negative speed.
The easy comment on this: you put a photoeye on a conveyor. You add a trigger in properties of this photoeye and choose picklist options for change speed and change direction. Then you look into the source code how it has been accomplished.
The difficult comment is you look into the references in manual and figure it out by yourself. You find the properties and methods of Conveyor Class here.
