ASTDan Posted February 8, 2008 Report Share Posted February 8, 2008 Hello, Can anyone recomend a good reference for control Panel wiring. Thanks Dan Quote Link to comment
Yair Posted February 8, 2008 Report Share Posted February 8, 2008 Maybe it's just me, but I don't understand the question. If you are refering to the connector pane, here are a couple of tips: Use standard patterns with terminals to spare. 4-2-2-4 is popular and has been made the default in recent versions. Try to keep a consistent style. Again, a common pattern is using the top two corner terminals for references going in and out and the two bottom corner ones for error wires. Make any input required unless it has a reasonable default value. If it does have a default value, write that value in parentheses as the end of the control's caption (which is what appears in the connector pane). Quote Link to comment
ASTDan Posted February 8, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 8, 2008 Hello, No it is not with regards to LabVIEW. Sorry that wasn't clear. I am trying to find a guide to wire up electrical control panels. I have searched amazon and google and haven't found anything I like. I am trying to find a reference book that explains this to the novice, or an engineer that wants his wiring to not look like it was done by an engineer. Thanks Dan Quote Link to comment
Yair Posted February 10, 2008 Report Share Posted February 10, 2008 Oh, sorry, I didn't notice you posted to the hardware forum. The only intelligent (and not particularly productive) thing I can say about physical control panels is that buttons with embedded LEDs are cool. They require an extra digital output, but I like them. Quote Link to comment
