time slot problem

[nehaom]

 Hi,

I am stuck with a problem.  I have to assign timing to the task for load prioritization . If my grid supply gets OFF, during 08:00 Hr to 20:00 Hour then my diesel generator should get ON for Load A and if my grid supply gets OFF after 20:00 Hour till morning 8:00 hour of next day the same diesel generator should get ON for Load B. this turning ON of diesel generator should have delay of at least 2 minutes. should i use timed loop or sequence, if yes please tell me how?

Try a state manchine.

Hey Thanks!! I am just developing logic, does state machine require interfacing?

I don't understand the question. What do you mean by "Logic"? by "interfacing"?

[nehaom]

By interface, I mean does it will require DAQ asst. to check grid supply and system timing to ckeck time? And By Logic I mean, I am just writing prog in Labview.

how would I give time. i am able to introduce wait, I took current date time and add a wait to current time, to introduce delay, but i m not getting how to assign timing? Please help me.. i m stucked here since last 7 - 8 days.
