siemens logo plc tutorial

LOGO! offers solutions for domestic and installation engineering applications such as stairway lighting, external lighting, sun blinds, shutters, shop window lighting and more; switch cabinet engineering, as well as for mechanical and apparatus engineering such as gate control systems, air-conditioning systems, rand ainwater pumps. LOGO! can also be implemented for special control systems in conservatories or greenhouses, for control signal processing and, by connecting a communication module such as an AS--i module, for distributed local controlling of machines and processes.  It provides an additional display that is wider than the Basic module. It has four function keys that you can program in your circuit program as inputs. Like the LOGO! Basic module, it has four cursor keys, an ESC and OK key that you can also program in your circuit program and use for navigation on the LOGO!

 

PLC Fundamentals - THE NUMBER SYSTEM

THE DECIMAL NUMBER SYSTEM

Decimal number system characteristic is the linear array of digits and also their significant placing.For example number 4324 can be represented :

4324 = 4x1000 + 3x100 + 2x10 + 4x1

Number 4 on the left is of differing significance to that of number 4 on the right.

The fundamental of the decimal number system is the availability of 10 different digits.They permit counting from 0 to 9. If counting is to excees the number 9, this constitutes acarry over to the next place digit.The significance of this place is 10, and the next carry over takes place when 99 is reached.

 

 

Boat Lift Controller with Remote - PLC Programming: Relay logic

Before describing the PLC programming, I’ll start by describing the type of relay logic I first considered. This will lead right into the Ladder Logic design.


The first task in this design is to convert the momentary pulsed output of the radio receiver to a steady-on output to run the lift motor. Also needed is a way to stop the motor when the lift reaches the full up or down position.

PLC Programming Languages

  • In the United States, ladder logic is the most popular
    method used to program a PLC
  • This course will focus primarily on ladder logic programming
  • Other programming methods include:
    … Function block diagrams (FBDs)
    … Structured text (ST)
    … Instruction List (IL)
    … Sequential function charts (SFCs)
