I think you should organize the flow and use a complete node to trigger a new one.
I did a basic test with long time ago to establish communication with OMRON PLC. Reading and writing 400 words to PLC and Node-RED, and also exporting into CSV every 20ms. It was working well.
hi @hipatel93, I see what you meant by using the complete node to plan the flow sequence in the node-red. Definitely i see myself using it in my flow in the future.
But i would like to ask how did you implemented your industrial iiot project at the factory floor level using node-red (also ensuring it to remain fail-safe like what if connection to server fails and all?) it would definitely give me insight to plan my industrial projects in the future
Hi @hipatel93 I have seen a few Node-RED 'powered' industrial applications on a PLC like ECU. There is a certain architecture with primary functional control done by Node-RED and a safety layer on top which is running in a separate task (Not Node-RED) and even on a dedicated core.
