A text covering fundamental programmable logic controller (PLC) programming and interfacing methods. Included is a collection of sample ladder logic program segments to perform specific tasks in any PLC program such as flashers, non-standard clocks, timed counters and sequencers, flip flops (RS, D, T, JK), majority decision networks, and one-shots. Topics then move into interfacing methods, discrete sensors, linear transducers, encoders, motor controllers, PID, system safety, and pneumatics. The text can be used in any community college or university-level Engineering Technology PLC course and is also an excellent addition to an engineer's or technician's technical reference library. Readers should have a thorough understanding of fundamental dc and ac circuits, electronic devices (including thyristors), and a knowledge of college algebra and trigonometry.

This book gives an introduction to Structured Text (ST), used in Programmable Logic Control (PLC). The book can be used for all types of PLC brands including Siemens Structured Control Language (SCL) and Programmable Automation Controllers (PAC). Contents: - Background, advantage and challenge when ST programming - Syntax and fundamental ST programming - Widespread guide to reasonable naming of variables - CTU, TOF, TON, CASE, STRUCT, ENUM, ARRAY, STRING - Guide to split-up into program modules and functions - More than 90 PLC code examples in black/white - FIFO, RND, 3D ARRAY and digital filter - Examples: From LADDER to ST programming - Guide to solve programming exercises Many clarifying explanations to the PLC code and focus on the fact that the reader should learn how to write a stable, robust, readable, structured and clear code are also included in the book. Furthermore, the focus is that the reader will be able to write a PLC code, which does not require a specific PLC type and PLC code, which can be reused. The basis of the book is a material which is currently compiled with feedback from lecturers and students attending the AP Education in Automation Engineering at the local Dania Academy, "Erhvervsakademi Dania", Randers, Denmark. The material is thus currently updated so that it answers all the questions which the students typically ask through-out the period of studying. The author is Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering (B.Sc.E.E.) and has 25 years of experience within specification, development, programming and supplying complex control solutions and supervision systems. The author is Assistant Professor and teaching PLC control systems at higher educations. LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/tommejerantonsen/

Widely used across industrial and manufacturing automation, Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs) perform a broad range of electromechanical tasks with multiple input and output arrangements, designed specifically to cope in severe environmental conditions such as automotive and chemical plants. Programmable Logic Controllers: A Practical Approach using CoDeSys is a hands-on guide to rapidly gain proficiency in the development and operation of PLCs based on the IEC 61131-3 standard. Using the freely-available* software tool CoDeSys, which is widely used in industrial design automation projects, the author takes a highly practical approach to PLC design using real-world examples. The design tool, CoDeSys, also features a built in simulator/soft PLC enabling the reader to undertake exercises and test the examples. Key features: Introduces to programming techniques using IEC 61131-3 guidelines in the five PLC-recognised programming languages. Focuses on a methodical approach to programming, based on Boolean algebra, flowcharts, sequence diagrams and state-diagrams. Contains a useful methodology to solve problems, develop a structured code and document the programming code. Covers I/O like typical sensors, signals, signal formats, noise and cabling. Features Power Point slides covering all topics, example programs and solutions to end-of-chapter exercises via companion website. No prior knowledge of programming PLCs is assumed making this text ideally suited to electronics engineering students pursuing a career in electronic design automation. Experienced PLC users in all fields of manufacturing will discover new possibilities and gain useful tips for more efficient and structured programming. * Register at www.codesys.com www.wiley.com/go/hanssen/logiccontrollers

Programmable Controllers is an introductory PLC text introducing the operation, programming and interfacing of the Allen-Bradley Pico 1760 PLC. The text builds from a foundation of electromagnetic relays with associated ladder diagrams and progresses into general purpose PLC internal operations, 1760 operational specifications, I/O considerations and common PLC applications. PicoSoft ver 6.22 is introduced with sample laboratory experiments and chapter problems applying the software to solve realistic application examples. A basic understanding of component-level electrical, electronic and logic switching concepts is beneficial but not required to use this book.
