Can domestic PLC use wireless communication terminals to achieve wireless communication? Let's find out

In industrial production workshops, PLCs are widely used in all aspects of automation control. With the construction of intelligent factories, many PLCs are still in an information island state. Now it is necessary to establish communication between the scattered PLCs in the factory. If the rewiring of the factory i

How to reasonably plan variable addresses in PLC programming

First, let's take a look at the soft components that represent variables in the PLC. They are mainly input X, output Y, auxiliary relay M, timer T, counter C, status S, data register D, XY. Generally, small PLCs are rare, with 40 points and 60 points. This can be planned according to the input and output types. The

The correct way to connect the PLC wire nose. The reason why normally open is used in PLC program

Crimping is a job that electricians are very familiar with. Many electricians are familiar with crimping wire noses. However, many people crimp wire noses based on experience. When we connect wires, we must pay attention to the fact that no joints are allowed during the wiring process. In order to make the joints mo

Self-study PLC programming steps sharing

The scientific PLC programming steps are actually very simple, but most engineers often think it is simple and ignore many details. Ignoring details will inevitably lead to problems in the future. To avoid future problems, you can only follow the rules well. There is no order without rules. PLC programming also has

What is an encoder? Wiring the encoder to the S7-200 SMART PLC

The encoder is a digital sensor that integrates optical, mechanical and electrical technologies. It mainly uses the principle of grating diffraction to achieve displacement and digital conversion, and converts the mechanical geometric displacement on the output shaft into pulses or digital quantities through photoel

Five things plc designers should know

1. Model selection 1. Choose a model with familiar programming software. I often receive some letters, especially some users who use programmable controllers (PLC) for the first time, asking which model of PLC to choose? Model selection is an old problem. Since there are many manufacturers producing PLCs, somet
