Log Stop Events with Timestamps in Studio5000 using 2D Arrays.

Описание: Have you ever wanted to log the exact time when your stop button is pressed? In this Studio5000 Allen-Bradley PLC tutorial, I’ll show you how to store timestamps in a 2D array and create a simple event log of the last 10 stop button presses.

This is a practical skill for anyone working in industrial automation, troubleshooting, or machine diagnostics. By the end of this video, you’ll understand how to:
✅ Use arrays to store multiple timestamps
✅ Capture event history when a stop button is triggered
✅ Maintain a rolling log of the last 10 events

📌 This video is part of the String & Array Handling Playlist on ReddyControls.
