controlling the outputs of a PLC by
0:03
observing the inputs is a fundamental
0:05
Concept in Automation and programming
0:08
this guide will examine how the c2n red
0:10
node red module works with a click PLC
0:12
inputs and outputs this is an exciting
0:15
step of the world of Automation and
0:17
control systems imagine efficiently
0:19
managing inputs and outputs using the C2
0:22
n red module and the click plus PLC this
0:25
powerful pairing helps streamline
0:27
processes and boost efficiency in many
0:29
different app appliations we will
0:31
explore how these Technologies work
0:33
together and how they can transform your
0:36
Systems you might wonder how flow and
0:38
later logic programming can control the
0:40
same output using the same inputs stay
0:43
tuned to learn the seamless integration
0:45
of the C2 and red module and the click
0:47

scan a PLC scan is an essential process
1:17
in Automation and control systems
1:19
helping machinery and processes run it
1:21
smoothly this scanning occurs repeatedly
1:23
often hundreds or thousand times a
1:28
works reading input puts the PLC reads
1:31
inputs from various sensors and devices
1:33
this gives important information about
1:35
the current state of the
1:39
program the PLC uses this input data to
1:42
execute its program logic it makes
1:45
decisions based on Specific Instructions
1:47
and conditions set up in
1:50
advance setting outputs the PLC adjusts
1:54
the outputs after processing the
1:56
information this controls devices like
1:57
actuators and Motors turning digital
1:59
signals into real world actions
2:02
communication during the scan the PLC
2:05
also handles communication tasks
2:06
allowing data to be exchanged between
2:08
different components for coordinated
2:10
operation for example the c2n red module
2:13
can communicate with the PLC but
2:15
remember that the communication is
2:16
generally slower than the PLC scans
2:19
time diagnostic lastly the PLC performs
2:23
diagnostic during the scan this helps it
2:26
identify any errors faults or unusual
2:28
conditions that may need immediate
2:31
attention understanding the PLC scan is
2:33
critical for improving control processes
2:35
and ensuring that systems operate
2:41
reliably C2 and red full
2:47
control previously in our post on leash
2:49
Innovation node red flow and click PLC
2:52
we wrote our first flow program in the
2:53
c2n red module using the click read and
2:57
click write instructions we directly
2:59
read eight selector switches and wrote
3:01
the status to the first eight outputs on
3:03
our PLC our click PLC latter logic
3:06
diagram only had an end statement so the
3:08
latter logic diagram was not controlling
3:10
outputs the c2n red module had complete
3:14
or full control of the outputs in our
3:16
initial setup the flow program in node
3:18
red directly manipulated the outputs in
3:20
the PLC showcasing the power of
3:22
integrated Control Systems we will
3:25
modify our flow program so that C2 and
3:27
red module and click ladder logic and
3:29
control the outputs this Advantage will
3:31
not compromise the speed or reliability
3:34
of our system we can Leverage The
3:36
inherent strengths of both systems for
3:40
Performance click plus PLC ladder
3:45
logic The Click plus PLC ladder logic
3:48
plays a critical role in controlling the
3:49
physical outputs of the PLC when
3:52
implementing the ladder logic it is
3:53
essential to ensure that the control of
3:56
physical outputs is done directly
3:57
through this logic by UTI izing the
4:00
latter logic you can effectively manage
4:02
the outputs of the click PLC in a
4:03
standard and efficient manner in this
4:06
context it is essential to note that any
4:09
control actions using the flow program
4:11
should focus exclusively on manipulating
4:13
internal memory areas these internal
4:16
memory areas such as C1 to C8 should be
4:18
utilized to control the PLC outputs
4:20
indirectly by incorporating these
4:22
controls in parallel with your
4:24
conditions on a rung you can effectively
4:26
regulate the physical outputs of the PLC
4:28
while maintaining a a systematic and
4:30
organized approach to programming our
4:33
ladder logic diagram in the click PLC
4:35
will control the first eight outputs
4:37

outputs on our PLC scan operates quicker
5:13
than the communication from our flow

5:19
outputs modifying the flow program to
5:21
control the internal memory bits of the
5:23
click plus PLC specifically C1 to C8 is
5:27
a critical step in optimizing the
5:28
functionality of your PL C system double
5:31
click on the click right node we will
5:33
change the memory type to control relay
5:35

5:46
done select deploy to save your changes
5:48
and execute our modified node red flow
5:52
program when adjusting the flow program
5:54
it is essential to consider the seamless
5:56
integration between the flow program and
5:58
a click plus PLC lateral Logic the
6:00
centergy ensures a synchronous operation
6:03
where the internal memory bits
6:04
controlled by the flow program align
6:06
perfectly with the ladder implementation
6:11
program click plus PLC ladder logic
6:16
program our switches are being read from
6:18
the C2 and red module flow program and
6:21
written to the internal bits C1 to C8
6:24
The Click lat logic program will control
6:26
the outputs using these internal bits we
6:29
we can now add additional control from
6:31
the PLC switch 5 to switch 8 will also
6:34
control the first four outputs these
6:36
input contacts will be programmed
6:38
parallel to the existing internal bits
6:40
controlled by the flow
6:42
program save and write the program to
6:46
PLC test the logic by activating the
6:49
switches on the PLC you will see that
6:51
the flow program will turn on the
6:52
outputs based on the switches condition
6:54
directly using internal memory the
6:57
latter logic will also turn on the first
6:58
four output based on the switch
7:03
8 in this process the seamless
7:05
coordination between the flow program
7:07
and a ladder logic ensures that your
7:09
control actions are accurately
7:10
translated in tangible results within
7:12
the PLC system this synchronization
7:14
guarantees precise input and output
7:16
control optimizing the operational
7:19
efficiency of your industrial
7:22
process the Strategic modification of
7:24
the click plus PLC program to
7:26
incorporate internal bits controlled
7:27
from the flow program allow allows you
7:29
to bridge the gap effectively between
7:31
