About this task
Planning is the key to smoothly developing and executing your Tracker project.
Think about putting together a jigsaw puzzle. Is it easier to put together with or without a picture to use as a reference? Apply your answer to Tracker. For this tutorial create a rough representation of the factory floor as your planning step.
Procedure
-
Review the information on the Tracker Tutorial Scenario and Process Details pages. Pay close attention to:
- Components in the process,
- Areas that are described and
- The direction and type of movement through the system.
-
Plan the production process and translate this into the architectural terms of Tracker.
Assume that there are:
Simple LED beams set up between all the regions that will toggle points to tell when an item has passed from one region to the other.
Note: When you create your own Tracker project, try to anticipate and map out many other details that you will become aware of as you go through this tutorial.
