Introductions of PLC有声读物mp3 and MCU印信
A PLC is a device that was invented to replace the necessary quential relay circuits for machine control. The PLC works by looking at its inputs and depending upon their state, turning on/off its outputs .The ur enters a program, usually via software or programmer that gives the desired results.
PLC are ud in many “real world” applications. If there is industry prent, chances are good that there is a PLC prent. If you are involved in machining, packaging, material handling, automated asmbly or countless other industries, you are probably already using them. If you are not, you are wasting money and time. Almost any application that needs some type of electrical control has need for PLC.
For example, let’s assume that when a switch turns on we want to turn a solenoid on for 5 conds and then turn it off regardless of how long the switch is on for. We can do this with a simple external timer. What if the process also needed to count how many times the switch individually turned on? We need a lot of external counters.
crumbleAs you can e, the bigger the process the more of a need we have for a PLC. We can simply program the PLC to count its inputs and turn the solenoids on for the specified time.
ymerWe will take a look at what is considered to be the “top 20” PLC instructions. It can be safely estimated that with a firm understanding of there instructions one can solve more than 80% of the applications in existence.
That‘s right, more than 80%! Of cour we’ll learn more than just the instructions to help you solve almost ALL your potential PLC applications.
The PLC mainly consists of a CPU, memory areas, and appropriate circuits to receive input/output data, as shown in Fig. 19.1 We can actually consider the PLC to be a box full of hundreds or thousands of parate relays, counters, timer and date storage locations. Do the counters, timers, etc. really exist? No, they don’t “physically” exist but rather they are simulated and can be considered software counters, timers, etc. The internal relays are simulated through bit locations in registers.
What does each part do?
INPUT RELAYS-(contacts) The are connected to the outside world. They physically exist and receive signals from switches, nsors, Typically they are not relays but rather they are transistors.
INTERNAL UTILITY RELAYS-(contacts) The do not receive signals from the outside world nor do they physically exist. They are simulated relays and are what enables a PLC to eliminate external relays. There are also some special relays that are dedicated to performing only one task. Some are always on while some are always off. Some are on only once during power-on and are typically ur for initializing data what was stored.
COUNTERS The again do not physically exist. They are simulated counters and they can be programmed to count puls. Typically the counters can count up, down or both up and down. Since there are simulated, they are limited in their counting speed. Some manufacturers also include high-speed counters that are hardware bad. We can think of the as physically existing. Most timers the counters can count up, down or up and

TIMERS The also do not physically exist. They come in many varieties and increments. The most common type is an on-delay type. Other include off-delay and both retentive and non-retentive types. Increments vary from 1ms through 1s.
OUTPUT RELAYS-(coil) The are connected to the outside world. They physically exist and nd on/off signals to solenoids, lights, etc… They can be transistors, relays, or triacs depending upon the model chon.
DATA STORAGE-Typically there are registers assigned to simply store data. There are usually ud as temporary storage for math or data manipulation. They can also typically be ur power-up they will still have the same contents as before power war removed. Very convenient and necessary!
A PLC works by continually scanning a program. We can think of this scan cycle as consisting of domestic3 important steps, as shown in Fig.19.2 There are typically more than 3 but
we can focus on the important parts and not worry about the others. Typically the others are checking the system and updating the current and timer values.

Step 1-CHECK INPUT STATUS-First the PLC takes a look at each input to determine if it is on or off. In other words, is the nsor connected to the first input on? How about the cond input? How about the third…It records this data into its memory to be ud during the next step.cosmos
Step largely2-EXECUTE PROGRAM-Next the PLC executes your program one instruction at a time. Maybe your program said that if the first input was on then it should turn on the first output. Since is already knows which inputs are on/off from the previous step, it will be able to decide whether the first output should be turned on bad on the state of the first input. It will store the execution results for u later during the next step.
Step 3-UPDATE OUTPUT STSTUS-Finally the PLC updates the status of outputs. It updates the outputs bad on which inputs were on during the first step and the results of executing your program during the cond step. Bad on the example in step 2 it would
now turn on the first output becau the first input was on and your program said to turn on the first output when this condition is true.
