Logic help - shifts

$

Hey,

(Programming a M224 with Machine Expert Basic)

I'd like to get some input from you guys about a logical task:

I have 8 contactors controlled by my PLC outputs, they heat a water boiler.

throughout my operation, I require a different amount of heaters (I could move between 1-8 heaters in a single operation)

I would like to scramble what contactors I put in use every time I start an operation, in order to not constantly use the same heating elements and wear specific ones out.

For example, in the first stage of heating I will use contactor #1, next time I start the operation I would like to use contactor #2 and so on..

How would you approach this problem? SBR? Timers?

Thanks
