BRX Do-More PLC Shift Register

The Shift Register (SR) instruction shifts BITs through a predefined number of BIT locations. These BIT locations can be a range of BITs, single Words or double Words, or a range of Words or double Words. This instruction has three inputs. The first input is the data input. It will determine if a one or zero will be placed in the first bit when the second clock bit input transitions from off to on. The third input is the reset which will zero out all the bits in the shift register. In our EasyPLC 3D example, the shift register detects and tracts the larger bottles along the conveyor belt. When in the paint station, the bottles are painted. When the conveyor reaches the end of the conveyor, the painted bottles are ejected into a box. You can see how valuable this instruction is in our PLC.

Here are just a few. – Standalone PLC with built-in I/O – Built-in Data Logging – Communication ability – Ethernet Port, RS232, RS485, USB – support for protocols such as Modbus RTU, Modbus TCP, ASCII, K-sequence (DirectLOGIC users), Custom Protocols (ASCII over serial, TCP or UDP over Ethernet)
