Now
let's
try
a
slightly
more
complicated
program
that
shows
how
to
relate
Steps
1—4
to
an
actual
application.
In the figure is a control circuit for a packaging machine. The circuit is
used to detect and count the number of products being carried on an
assembly tine. When it counts five products, the circuit energizes a
solenoid. The solenoid receives electrical current for a period of two
seconds and is then shut off.
Using Step 1 we determine that there is an input device (a limit switch), an
output device (a solenoid), a control relay (an internal auxiliary relay), a
timer, and a counter.
To carry out Step 2, we have to assign numbers to the components
constituting this circuit.
This is how our assignment looks:
Input device (limit switch) : Input relay No. 0000
Output to solenoid : Output relay No. 0500
Control relay (X1) : Internal auxiliary relay No. 1000
Counter CC : CNT47
Timer T : TIMOO
The ladder diagram that represents this circuit using the numbers we
assigned looks like the one at left.
Next
we'll
encode
the
ladder
diagram
as
required
for
Step
3.
These
are
the
key
things
that
require
attention:
Be sure to use the assigned input number.
Since the timers and counters must be assigned numbers from a range of
0 to 47, a convenient way to make this assignment is to begin at one end
of the range for timers and the other end for counters. That’s why we gave
Timer T the number 00, while Counter CC was assigned the number 47.
This
helps
to
prevent
possible
use
of
the
same
number
for
both
a
timer
and a counter.
Timers
and
counters
cannot
directly
produce
an
output
but
must
be
output
by
means
of
an
output
relay.
This relay contact can be reused as often as desired, but the coil cannot
be reassigned.
The assigned output relay plays the role of the load in this example.
The right bus bar does not need to be written.
Each logic line must be ended with a relay coil, timer/counter, or special
instruction.
