![]() ![]() Do you or anyone have a ladder logic (for SCadaPack PLC) example of how to make changes in the plc so that it sends data to my FPGA device. Thank you Rod for your reply.yes, we are using the RSlogix 5000 package series to work with Allen Bradley PLC. Does this software also directly detecs my device when i connect it to the PLC or do I need to do some changes in it. The ScadaPack PLC uses Telepace software to configure these ports and iFix software as an interface to the working of the PLC, my doubt with this when i connect my device to the PLC does the iFix software automotically detect my device or do i need to do soem changes or configuration part in Telepace software, Can anyone please help me with this or provide any documents which can clear my doubts? The Allen Bradley PLC uses RS logix 500 software for interface part. And from manuals I came to know that these ports follow ModBus RTU mode serial protocol for communication, is this also right information?. And in Allen Bradley PLC's, there's a channel 0 RS-232 port which can be connected. I am very new to the concepts of PLC's and after a long study of many papers and manuals related to PLC's, I understood that ScadaPack PLC'c have two RS-232 ports COM2, COM3 which i can used to connect to the device and communicate with. Now we need to connect this board to the PLC and establish a Serial Communication using RS-232 port. ![]() written a code and implemented it on a FPGA Board) which does some work for PLC.

The shoe’s most popular silhouette, the Air Jordan 1 High OG, has a retail price of $170. The shoes upper features a white leather base, overlaid by. ![]() Pricing for the Air Jordan 1 on the secondary market varies by colorway, size, and other factors. The Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG Hyper Royal brings a weathered look to the basketball classic. Since then, the Jordan 1 has been a regular part of Jordan Brand’s release cycle, and that’s putting it mildly. The shoe’s first retro release came in 1994, and then again in 2000. The Air Jordan 1 was released in 1985 by Nike. The incredibly classic and popular sneaker is available at Stadium Goods. It’s also the centerpiece of too-many-to-to name collaborations with Off-White, Travis Scott, A Ma Maniére, Justin Timberlake and Jay-Z, and more.Ībove all, the Air Jordan 1 can be worn by anyone, making it a shoe of the people. Like many classic Jordans, the style is available in full family sizing, including women’s-exclusive colorways. Several variations of the shoe exist, including the Air Jordan 1 High Zoom Comfort, the Air Jordan 1 Low Elevate, and more. Today, the Jordan 1 is available in an incredible variety of colorways on all three of its silhouettes: the high, mid, and low. Inspired by Jordan’s alma mater, the University of North Carolina, the “UNC” theme debuted on the classic sneaker and later became an integral part of the Air Jordan line. It was released in an unprecedented amount of colorways upon its original release, including the first-ever college-inspired signature colorway for a professional athlete: the “UNC” Jordan 1. The Jordan 1 was designed by Peter Moore, the same mind behind the Nike Dunk and several other retro basketball shoes of ‘80s-era fame. Nike’s famous “Banned” commercial campaign also contributed to the Jordan 1’s lore. Suddenly, the Jordan 1 was the hottest sneaker in the world in the mid-80s. With fans coming out in droves to see Jordan play at NBA arenas around the country, and even more tuning in at home, all eyes were on Jordan’s footwear. The Jordan 1 has transcended its original purpose over time, becoming a skate shoe, a lifestyle shoe, a hyped shoe, a forgotten shoe, and a shoe that Jordan Brand can’t seem to release in enough colorways to satisfy the demand of sneaker collectors around the world.Īfter wearing the Nike Air Ship early in his rookie season with the Chicago Bulls, Jordan switched to the Air Jordan 1, and quickly established himself as one of the best basketball players in the world. It was released in many colorways, including the “Chicago,” “Bred,” and more, and on Jordan’s feet during his epic 63-point performance in the ‘86 NBA Playoffs against the Larry Bird-led Boston Celtics. Debuted in 1985, the Jordan 1 was Jordan’s first-ever signature shoe with Nike, and the sneaker that started it all for “His Airness’s” legacy in footwear. The Air Jordan 1 is considered by many collectors to be the greatest Air Jordan shoe worn by Michael Jordan.

The tsElements plugin for SolidWorks is no longer available for purchase, but is reported to work in SolidWorks 2016. The T-Splines 4.0 download for Rhino 5 is still available here. ![]() At least long enough to ask them, “Have you tried Fusion 360?” That tsElements lasted three years and the Rhino plugin lasting six shows that Autodesk was at least slightly dedicated in keeping the products going. We knew the end would eventually come to T-Splines support for competing products as it was absorbed into Autodesk products (currently Fusion 360 and Alias). In Febraury 2014, Autodesk discontinued tsElements (T-Splines for SolidWorks) with the reason that “a community never really had a chance to coalesce around the concept before T-splines were acquired by Autodesk.” tsElements for SolidWorks added organic modeling inside SolidWorks.

Lots of other choices exist, including video doorbells, indoor/outdoor cameras, smoke/fire and carbon monoxide detectors, and lots of other ways to maintain a feeling of security. Some conventional devices still exist that consist of an in-wall panel, however the majority of today's systems have standardized on a touchscreen device of some kind to arm and disarm the security system. What matters most when choosing a wireless security system? You'll likely want a few window/door sensors and some type of control panel as a basic option, which most systems tend to have. But, in most respects, Brinks Home wireless security systems can be counted on to deliver solid protection if you don't find what you're looking for with our higher-ranked providers. Brinks Home could also go a little further by offering a well-defined satisfaction or return policy. We'd appreciate seeing greater transparency with their equipment and monitoring costs, instead of forcing prospective clients into a conversation with a representative first. They've got plenty of customers, a great range of options (especially with home automation features), and their costs don't seem to be high by comparison. ![]() When you look at the better-known names in wireless security, Brinks Home comes out on top. Then again, any company with 1,000,000+ clients is going to have some less-than-perfect moments - and in the wireless security industry, some of those come from shipping delays, individual installers, and other factors largely outside of Brinks Home's control. It's a positive that those BBB complaints get responses from Brinks Home representatives, but less so when customers say they got zero help until they filed there. However, it's hard to overlook the fact that 25% of the Brinks Home ratings we found were a dismal one star combine that with more than 1600 complaints registered with the BBB in the year leading up to this evaluation and you'll see that it's not all rosy here. We're glad that they have a good "A" rating and accreditation from the Better Business Bureau, and around 3000 five-star ratings from satisfied clients. You'll see a range of sentiment from Brinks Home customers. At the time of our last review, they had a no-contract option known as Nest Secure the site still refers to that in a few places, but we didn't see it included anywhere as a choice now. That could vary (up or down), based on where you live and the authorized Brinks Home dealer in your area, as well as any promos that could be in place when you're shopping for your security system.īrinks Home doesn't come right out and tell you, but it's safe to assume you'll have a contract of at least three years with any of their packages and plans. We did a little poking around, and our research revealed that most customers are spending at least $199 for the Essential equipment package, plus monthly monitoring costs starting at $39.99. Yes, that's correct: you won't know what your wireless security system is going to cost until you get a quote from a Brinks Home representative. That will help you have an idea before you work with a sales rep. Spend some time browsing the Brinks Home site to see which components make your "must have" list and which would be "nice but not necessary". These can include a flood sensor, smart door lock, smoke/carbon monoxide detectors, and much more.

"Now, put it in a gale with 25-foot waves (50 feet trough to peak)… And it becomes a towering spike of death that shoots up from the sea every 15 to 20 minutes, out of nowhere, 60 feet into the air, only to plunge down into the dark depths waiting to skewer some unsuspecting boat in a few minutes when it thrusts out of the ocean again." It rots in such a way that it becomes sharpened to a perfect point by wind and waves, and looks quite menacing." "Now, give that pole 20 years of floating around or so. Shows up on the radar, and is easy to spot." So you have this four-foot diameter telephone pole in the sea, sticking up 40 feet into the air. "Sometimes when a big log gets loose from a raft, it becomes partially waterlogged and floats small end up. But one of the most terror-inspiring things I’ve seen are what can happen with some of the loose logs from the logging trade." "In the Gulf of Alaska, I have seen some s**t. "Giant spears plunging in and out of the sea." Seeing those tentacles was just insane for their length and to think about how a shark is mostly muscle and the Octopus would just snap em was kinda scary." " The crew would joke about it thereafter, people would smoke on the deck at night and people would say don't let the Octopus in. "The Marine Biologist lowered a dive camera and this Octopus was HUGE." "The Marine Biologist smiled and said, 'Octopus is literally doing that to entertain themselves. A shark was swimming by in a cruising fashion and we see these tentacles grab it right in front of the glass and snap it like a glowstick." "This Octopus had made itself a home between the base and the deck. everyone got to see the reason the sharks were dying like viewing it on a movie screen." Then one morning while in a room that was completely submerged and had a beautiful view as we sat in a meeting. The guys on the rig had all kinds of theories. "What made it really weird was they looked like they had heart attacks or died in their sleep, no marks or bites or anything. The crew would have to punch them down so the current could catch them with a large pole." ![]() they would float up under the see-through deck that looked much like a metal colander. "Then a steady four or five a day for a week or two. Ended up doing oil rigs and one beautiful morning there were Sharks going under the main platform like always but there were two dead sharks, next morning three new dead, then four the next day." "Fresh out of college I got a job in Cambridge, Massachusetts as an architect designing whatever. It studied the ship for a moment until just sinking back down until the glow of the water masked it completely." " The whale cocked to one side and looked at the ship, and our eyes met, I want to think. Suddenly a lot of turbulence and a whale surfaces. But this patch gets darker and darker and darker until pitch black. There was still a LOT of glowing water, we weren't headed out of it. "I stared at what were multiple squids passing by for minutes, what seemed like an eternity, and then the light started going away in the spot I was staring. You could catch their outline in the light from the water." "At night during one of these events, I saw blue glowing water (what I now know was bioluminescent algae), and inside this rather massive patch of blue glowing water was squid, that appeared to be maybe 15-20 feet long. It's mesmerizing, especially if you're alone." ![]() You look at this pitch-black void, with only the wake or turbulence of the water catching light, and intrusive thoughts of jumping in just naturally occur. They say it draws you in, and it really does. "Another time, I was watching the water at night. "In the middle of the Pacific, it's so dark, and there's so little light pollution, you can see reds, browns, and faint blues of gas clouds in the starscape." "Once we had 100s, probably around 400 dolphins riding the carrier's wake. "Oftentimes in the Navy, I'd stand on the fantail and watch the ocean." |
