Hi there.
Thanks for the reply Carl.
Yes i am using a transducer to indicate its position. i m using limit switches. As for the speed the lifts are constant speed. Their speed is determined by the speed of the dc gear motor i am using. the reduction ratio of the motor is 1:288 i.e. the for the gear train to complete a revolution the motor rotates 288 times. they are basically passenger lifts i am implementing. i am introducing a time delay of 25ms to account for spike noise and debouncing. practically, to naked eyes it is instantaneous. their coordination should be such that when two lifts are positioned and when a user input is given, the closer of the two lifts to the user should reach the user.
i am not sure whether potential energy of the lift is an important consideration.
these are the points i have in mind and i would like to implement them. i appreciate your reply. can u please help me further with this algorithm?
regards
