C-More EA9 HMI Series Barcode Scanner

The C-More HMI Panel will support a barcode scanner (barcode reader) input. A scanner uses a light source and a light sensor to translate optical impulses into an electrical signal. The CMore can accept a USB barcode scanner input. We will now connect and program a barcode scanner into our HMI panel. The PLC ladder … Read more

BRX (Do-More) PLC PID Ramp Soak Profile

The purpose of a ramp soak profile is to make gradual, controlled changes in temperature (Ramp), followed by a temperature hold (Soak) period. We will be using our Do-More Proportional-Integral-Derivative PID Instruction with PWM output that we looked at last time to apply the ramp/soak profile. This will be done on the BRX Do-More PLC. … Read more

C-More EA9 HMI Series Panel Object List Clock

We will now look at the C-More real-time clock object. The C-More HMI Panel software uses virtual components called Objects. These objects are programmable to simulate the functions that you require on your automation project. Pushbuttons, Switches, meters, and graphs are just a few of the objects that are available to you. The Clock Objects … Read more

BRX (Do-More) PLC PID with PWM Output

A Proportional-Integral-Derivative algorithm is a generic Control Loop feedback formula widely used in industrial control systems. A PID algorithm attempts to correct the error between a measured process variable and the desired setpoint by calculating and then outputting a corrective action that can adjust the process accordingly and rapidly, to keep the Error to a … Read more
