3.1 Defining the Requirements for the Application Example
Defining the Inputs and Outputs for the Application
This chapter describes a sample program for a home security system. As shown in
Figure 3-2, the program monitors two zones. Any breach of security results in an alarm being
sounded. The sample program uses the following inputs:
S Input 1 (I0.0) monitors zone 1 (entrance, living room, kitchen, and bedroom 3).
S Input 2 (I0.1) monitors zone 2 (bedroom 1, bedroom 2, bathroom, and rear entrance).
S Input 3 (I0.2) provides the arm/disarm switch for the security system.
S Input 4 (I0.3) provides a “panic button” to immediately turn on the alarm siren.
In addition to the inputs, the program uses the following outputs.
S Output 1 (Q0.0) controls the LED on the security system.
S Output 2 (Q0.1) turns on the siren to sound an alarm.
S Output 3 (Q0.2) turns on a low-level notification alert to signify that the alarm will be
turned on in a predetermined number of seconds.
S Output 4 (Q0.3) turns on an external interface relay (perhaps to an automatic dialing
machine).
Figure 3-3 shows a wiring diagram for the home security application.
Creating Symbolic Names for the Elements of the Program
Symbolic names help to document or define the specific memory locations or I/O used by
your program. Table 3-1 lists the symbolic names used by the program for the sample
application. The sample program also uses SM0.5 to generate an on/off (blinking) pattern for
the LED.
