PIII and Dosing - old thread, new problems

[tnoblett]

Back ground...

PII to the PIII ex upgrade a few years back...
Worked fine with the dosing pumps.

Upgraded to 5.05 a few months back... Learned about the Timers way to program the dosers. Easy... No functionality! Been working on the problem for sometime and now need help.

Re-programmed the powerbar (1 - 6), detached and programmed the doser to (7 - 9). Comm light show connected. Nothing during auto-dosing or manual dosing.

Tried the feed pause function within that screen to check. Feed pause activated during a manual dose cycle. Still no dosing function.

Tried the manual over ride function to test pumps differently - pumps go on...

Ideas??? Another test???

Anyone have a few screen shots of their timers screen, the socket function screen, or the 10v function screen???

Thanks

Hey Neighbor...

Per your request here are two screen shots that may help:

Note I am using PLC 5.07.3 and firmware 5.07.

Calcium Timer

Socket Functions

In addition to the above have you seen Michael's Review and Setup Guide? He touches on programming the powerbar in the first post.

Hopefully that helps. If you think I can help with anything else just ask.

Thanks for the quick response...

Found the problem in your socket functions screen... Mine were set to "always off" instead of the related timer. Swapped mine to Timer 7...9 and they started working per the Timer functions.

So simple!

Thanks again.

Any stability issues with the new software???

I guess I should upgrade again...

Glad you got it working.

No problems with the new software. Works as expected. If I could get the "Time shift" cloud feature figured out I would be a happy camper. Not much support on the Profulux support forum. Based on what others report it is a cool feature but understanding how to set it up has been my challenge.:lol:
