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.

Thank you for the advice, Mika. My question however was not generated by a practical problem, but rather from the fact that we have to design an equipment which must interface with other conveyors. By now we�ll ignore those two points. Regards, Ola
