Practical Tips and Techniques
We will now look at buttons and indicators that we can use on our C-More Micro HMI. The C-More Micro HMI Panel software uses virtual components called Objects. These objects are programmable to simulate the functions that you require on your automation project. Several of these objects can be placed on a one-panel screen and … Read more
Just about every program usually has some data comparison instruction. This is the ability to compare information from one area of the controller to another and act on results. The output of this comparison conditions the logical continuity of a rung. PLC Fiddle is a free online browser simulator and has the following compare contact … Read more
An array is a storage area for a group of common data type tags. They usually have some relationship with each other and need to be manipulated as a group. Previously we defined an array and use this in an indirect addressing program. It sequenced bits in an output card indirectly. We then looked at … Read more
We will now look at shapes like lines, rectangles, circles, and frames that we can use on our C-More Micro HMI. The C-More Micro 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 … Read more
PLC programming will often involve math equations that need to be solved. Every manufacturer of programmable logic controllers will include math logic for you to use in your programs. Numbering systems play an important role. You can usually perform math using BCD (Binary Coded Decimal), Binary or Floating Point. Here is a link that will … Read more
An array is a storage area for a group of common data type tags. They usually have some relationship to each other and need to be manipulated as a group. Last time we defined an array and use this in an indirect addressing program. It sequenced bits in an output card indirectly. In this second … Read more
