    Tech 998 barfeeder

    The story we all laugh about. Forgotten backup battery replacemet

    But now we have a dead barfeeder. No backup. The maker og the barfeeder cant help us.

    So Hoping there is one in here with the same barfeeder or with a copy of the plc program.

    Pro machinery tech 998 from around 2005
    With Ax2n plc

    Thanks

    There is something seriously wrong when a dead battery turns a perfectly good piece of equipment into a paperweight. I guess the manufacturer never heard of EEPROMs

    The feeder is too low value to pay someone to write a new program or replace the controls and start from scratch, you could buy a new one for the cost. If you can do the programming in-house then it would be worth it, but not to go to an outside systems integrator.

    Best of luck.

    Ya it a bummer. But its our fault not to change the battery in time. No other to blame on that.

    Her in dk, a new barfeeder of same type cost 10-15000euro.

    But if somebody had the plc program. We would be up an running fast and cheap
