I want to make Conveyor speed depend on the value of the variable, but I can't write the value of the speed in the Conveyor property window. Is there a good way?
The reason why I want to designate speed as a variable is that I want to read the value from facility plc later and adjust the conveyor speed.
You can use either a Process Flow Variable or a Tracked Variable (this can be global in the toolbox, a label, a table cell or even just a node you place somewhere in the tree). Then have an Event Triggered Source react to the OnChange event of that variable and set the conveyor speed accordingly.
When you set up the emulation connection you can also set the conveyor speed directly without the need for an intermediate variable. (The example screenshot shows a Modbus connection but other control variables should work similarly.)
