    Hi,

    you need to create an event with an attach action and connect it to your signal. See Simulation Tab --> EventManager. Once connected your signal to this event set your signal in rapid and the event will be executed. (Same for detaching).

  • thx for replying, but how do i set the signal in rapid?

    In case of a digitial signal:
    SetDO SIGNALNAME, 0;
    SetDO SIGNALNAME, 1;

    have a look into the rapid manual.
