Hi Guys,
I have a two speed back gear on the Schaublin 125CNC, and want to select high/low with a momentary switch at present.

This latching ladder was working, until I added the comparators. 
 

The problem using only the "spindle on" inhibit, was selecting a gear change with a running spindle cocked the ladder,  and as soon as you commanded the spindle off, the gear change occurred with a still spinning spindle. The gearbox is only supposed to shift when stationary. I added the comparator so that it has to wait till the spindle winds down before shifting gear.
 

I tried %IF0<5 but that didn't work. Then I tried %IF0=0,  but even once the spindle stops and that value stablises to 0, that line wont go active. 
I would appreciate any assistance on what my syntax error is here.
Cheers,
Mark

Does the pound sign belong in the comparison statement?

Maybe try:
%IF0=0

instead of
#%IF0=0

Great spotting thanks. I'll check that tomorrow. The comparator box has a pound sign in it by default. But you are right, the other examples I now see have it removed.
Cheer,
Mark

That was it. Thanks. Now it works as expected.
