Timer – ST

Timer – ST PLC Educative Solutions For Factory Automation

The IEC 61131 standart offers a definition of Timers. PLC3000 integrates only TON timers that can be set by defining the time base %Ti.TB, and the preset value %Ti.PV. The timer is triggered by activating the input %Ti.IN, and the output %Ti.Q goes to 1 when the current timer value reaches the preset value. The […]

Counter – ST

Counter – ST PLC Educative Solutions For Factory Automation

The IEC 61131 standard offers a definition of Counters. PLC3000 integrates up and down Counters. It is necessary to define a preselection value %Ci.PV, which can be set with an integer value. The current value of a counter is set to 0 when %Ci.R is activated. The current value of a counter is set to […]

Edge Generation – IL

Edge Generation – IL PLC Educative Solutions For Factory Automation

PLC3000 does not include Rising and Falling Edge functions. However, they can easily be generated from the available memory bits Generation in IL Generate a Rising Edge on %I0 is done by considering a memory bit, e.g. %M1, such as <img width=”300″ height=”130″ src=”https://plc3000.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/FrontMontant-300×130.jpg” alt=”” loading=”lazy” srcset=”https://i1.wp.com/plc3000.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/FrontMontant.jpg?resize=300%2C130&ssl=1 300w, https://i1.wp.com/plc3000.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/FrontMontant.jpg?w=533&ssl=1 533w” sizes=”(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px” /> […]

System Bits

System Bits PLC Educative Solutions For Factory Automation

PLC 3000 has 2 system bits: %S1: for the initialization and setting of timers and counters, %S2: for the initialization of the memory bits.  These system bits correspond to Rising Edges correlated to the RUN of the Code and the Reset of the scale models.
