System
This simple application was developed to develop and consolidate programming techniques (constants, variables, block structures etc.) and the use of PLC blocks (flags, time modules and other functions). A PLC with 8 inputs and 5 outputs is required.
Function
- Time control
- Interruption control
- Simple understanding of the sequence
- Programmable counters
- Definition of origin conditions
- time-based control
- use of interrupts and emergency stop
Method
The equipment is designed for student experiments. Practical tasks challenge the student to solve the control problem by programming it themselves. Suggested solutions are supplied as a file.
Target group
Vocational training in industry and students specialising in automation technology. The course offers experiments at a low level for vocational schools and bachelor programmes.
Previous knowledge
- Theoretical fundamentals of PLC Programming.
Topics
- Programme counter
- Creating the start conditions
- Time-controlled sequences
- Interruptions and emergency stop
