Totally new in PLC's and being a mechanical & process engineer, I would appreciate some information at beginners' level.
Have purchased a Siemens LOGO PLC and I would like to program such that I can randomly choose 1 out of the 4 available outputs (later expand to more outputs, say up to 16) to start one of the 4 fountain solenoid valves.
After this particular fountain ran for a random time, this I know how to do , the next randomly selected solenoid valve should open (1 out of the other 3) and again run on a random timer.
So the actual question: how to randomly choose one of the outputs?
Siemens LOGO has a lot of build-in functions of which menu I still not understand.
Being a process engineer, it also seems foolish to look for randomly unknown things to happen, but this is meant for kids' fun.
Thanks, Johan
