    No Outputs (Mistubishi Q-Series/GX Works2)...

    On a dummy set up with the same rack set up, i've read from in GX developer and same symptoms. No outputs will force on, but if you put an input in the rung and force that, it'll come on??

    Yes. 100% in run mode. If we put an input below a marker (which wont force) then force the input on, the output works. If we remove that input then try to force output or marker that sets output, it doesnt switch on???

    Looking for a bit of help. Our firm has a section of our machines subbed out to another company. They have a fairly old machine that PLC's battery died and they lost the software. We've managed to source the software and I was supposed to re-load yesterday. I'm no PLC expert, still learning...

    Hi sams.. I fully understand ladder and how it works. I can fault find someone elses software with relative ease, but when I come to edit a step sequence or something, I struggle. How can I improve/practice my editing? The easy answer is to just spend time on it, but I havent got that luxury...

    Machine Re-Location Help

    With regards to point 1, I think (from a google search) that the UK & Czech both operate on a 400v @ 50hz 3-phase systems. I got told in work that they 'most probably' run at 380. Can anyone confirm or deny this. Regardless, if it was at 380v, could it impact the machine if ran at 400v? Thanks
