Parts counter with monitor 
This program is responsible for counting the actual items on the conveyor belt. This is 
accomplished using light barriers, which when the item passed the light barrier, the count of 
items is decreased by 1. A pre-assigned count value needs to be entered prior to the running 
of the conveyor system. When the count reaches '0', the conveyor belt is stopped.
