Do More and Cmore Clock input example
« on: July 22, 2015, 12:36:56 PM »
I was wondering if anyone could point me in the right direction or might know of a sample program for entering a clock function.  For example with a microwave where I want to pop some popcorn, I would enter 3 min and 30 seconds, press start and  and after 3:30 "ding" the popcorn is ready.  I am using a do more with a C-more HMI.  it would be nice to enter say 5915 on the hmi which would represent 59 minutes and 15 seconds.  Any input would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you
Bryan

Moved this up. Think it will get more discussion here.

Part of the charm of math boxes is that you can do a big expression in one shot, so you could do "MATH D4 (D0 * 60000) + (D1 * 1000)"  and cut several rungs.  I'd probably have them enter a single number like 5915, and split it into minutes and seconds in Do-More before doing the multiplying.  For display, convert it into a string and insert the colon.
I retract my earlier statement that half of all politicians are crooks.  Half of all politicians are NOT crooks.  There.
