In this video, I walk through a practical industrial automation workaround using the Banner DXMR50-LB-2PA-2P Logic Block Controller. I needed to create a window teach function for an analog sensor without changing the PLC program, so I used DXM-R50 logic blocks to monitor a 4-20mA input, create upper and lower threshold limits, and trigger a discrete output whenever the process value entered the desired window. You'll see how to configure threshold rules, use data stores as internal registers, build logic conditions, and create a reliable output signal for your PLC or control system. This approach is especially useful when: • Your sensor only provides an analog output • You need a discrete setpoint signal • PLC modifications are difficult or restricted • You need a fast field solution for troubleshooting or integration In this video you'll learn: ✅ How to configure the Banner DXM-R50 Logic Block Controller ✅ How to create threshold-based action rules ✅ How to build window detection logic ✅ How to use data stores as internal registers ✅ How to convert a 4-20mA signal into a discrete output ✅ How to test and validate your logic before deployment My mission is to help engineers, technicians, system integrators, and automation professionals solve real-world industrial automation challenges with practical, field-tested solutions.
