Momentary Relay operation

[ckane]

Newbie here.

Using a custom function, how does one operate a relay on a momentary basis?  I want to emulate the function of a momentary push button.  

For example, I have an INIT Input which is a manual push button, but I want to either programmically operate a relay contact in parallel with the input or call the custom function that this input operates.

As an update, I can call the function, but what I really want to do is emulate the push button.  I have stanard start/stop circuit with manul buttons, but I want to program the stop input.  So when the process completes, I want to emulate pressing the stop button.

You could actually turn on the STOP input for one scan time by running the command SETIO STOP (assuming your STOP button is so labelled in the I/O table).

You should ensure that the function calling SETIO STOP precede the ladder circuit that STOP is driving. This way it has a chance to be executed by the ladder scan before the I/O scan set it back to OFF state.
