Re: [foxboro] FoxView momentary contact and close problem - solution

You can do the following in Foxview to do multiple momentary contacts 
with a few issues.

1) configure the ACTION as a Display Command
in the Command String Window
setb C1:B1.P1 1
setb C2:B2.P2 1
sleep 2
setb C1:B1.P1 0
setb C2:B2:P2 0

This will set both C:B.P high for 2 seconds, then set them low 
again.  The equivalent of a timed momentary contact in the old DM.

HOWEVER ! Sleeps put the entire display to sleep for the 2 second 
interval, so no values update, and nothing else can be picked during 
the sleep time.  We have used this (judiciously) in special 
instances.  Not a great solution, but a good stop gap workaround.

Regards,
David
