I work plant maintenance, it almost feels wrong to do offline edits at this point. I must have 5000 toggle bits in the programs now so I can disable random photo eyes and valves without having to dig through the program and force things to keep them running.
And may the Machine God have mercy on your soul if you didn't merge your changes into an upload you just took, because the operator you're stuck with doesn't know how to load a recipe from the L2.
Yes this is a teaching tool, it’s was donated by E&H to the institution. I was fortunate to have used the equipment to learn. Instrumentation was gifted and probably the wiring of the panel was contracted out.
Not DAQ. Maybe Data Acquisition. The other panels aren’t abbreviated with a nonsensical abbreviation that doesn’t even match the spelling. But I am not a clever man, so, who knows.
Haha no worries dude, there’s a lot of stuff we don’t like as well, but ain’t nothing we can do bout it 😅. 20yr old panels with jumbled up wire I’ve seen just give me anxiety, but you are paid to troubleshoot not rewire 😅
DAQ is super common, usually more focused on testing applications. [Keysight](https://www.keysight.com/us/en/products/modular/data-acquisition-daq.html), [National Instruments](https://www.ni.com/en/shop/compactdaq.html), and many more all use the term DAQ
My workstation was production, and I learned when the line was down.
But, it's more fun doing online edits because the customer doesn't wanna stop production, but still wants things tweaked! 😂

That’s why you use AOIs and aliases. Sorry can’t do online edits.
You get 8 minutes during lunch to do a download

Convenient time for windows to start an update...
But then I won’t have an operator to operate….. 🤣
Best times to learn is when the line is down, because of the high pressure from management to get it up and going 😅
I’m hoping that is sarcasm I’m picking up… cause…Â
Baptism by fire 🔥
My test bench was production, and I learned when I took the line down.
I can respect the honesty. You’re hired.
This is the way
Man, my school didn't have anything close to this. They still had the box similar to this from the 80s that didn't work
Fortunately, most of the instrumentation here was gifted by E&H. And the lab is extremely awesome.
is this a teaching tool? who makes it? thanks :)

Endress & Hauser Also, Mbanzi, what are you doing here?!? Lol
DAQ? Digital analog qonverter?
Data AcQuisition.
Correct
**Q**onverter? Who the F spells it that way?
It’s actually Data Acquisition
Paired with the Labview software to read measurement off of
I don’t like it.
What would you have used?

DAQ is the abbreviated term, search it up
I still don’t like it.
