The conveyor program in the Allen Bradley PLC may be bad. I think it is a Micrologic 2000. You may have to re-program it using a hand held unit. Can't halp You with the Pana. I'm a Universal kind of guy.

Exactly. Poor Olas is pulling his hair out over an issue that has no business being "standardized". The SMEMA guys with apparently way too much time on their hands couldn't simply stop at the communications protocol and leave it at that....they had t

Yeah, it's set to use SMEMA for down line. I have the conveyor conected to downline fmi on up500 (right side of machine,) but the Upline Ready light is activated on the up500 when the conveyor is ready and not the downline like I would expect to see.

It does look like it was setup for fuji or siemens connection. I did get the smema signals working; had to add the connections for pins 3 & 4 on both ports and move some of the existing connections according to the smema diagram. Also, I wasn't seein
