Omron CP1H Math Instructions

Programmable logic controllers are not typically known for their math ability. Modern PLC controllers now come with several math instructions to expand the ability to perform math routines. Every controller has different methods to handle math with varying systems of numbering. Binary, BCD (Binary Coded Decimal), and floating-point single and double are examples of some numbering systems. The following is a post on what everybody should know about PLC numbering systems. https://accautomation.ca/what-everybody-ought-to-know-about-plc-programmable-logic-controller-numbering-systems/ If you subscribe to our website, you will get a free copy of the article on numbering systems, which includes understanding the floating point. You must refer to the programming manual of the controller that you are programming for specific math instruction information. We will be looking at some of the math instructions in the Omron CP1H PLC. Examples of some of the instructions will be presented. More information can be obtained at our website. This includes all of the links mentioned in this video. https://accautomation.ca/omron-cp1h-math-instructions Previously in this Omron CP1H series, we looked at the following: System Hardware https://accautomation.ca/omron-cp1h-system-hardware/ CX-Programmer https://accautomation.ca/omron-cp1h-cx-programmer/ Establish Communication https://accautomation.ca/omron-cp1h-establish-communication/ Omron CP1H Setting, Forcing, and Online Editing https://accautomation.ca/omron-cp1h-setting-forcing-and-online-editing/ Omron CP1H Numbering Systems and Addressing https://accautomation.ca/omron-cp1h-numbering-systems-and-addressing/ Omron CP1H Timers https://accautomation.ca/omron-cp1h-timers Omron CP1H Counters https://accautomation.ca/omron-cp1h-counters Omron CP1H Data Movement https://accautomation.ca/omron-cp1h-data-movement Omron CP1H Compare Instructions https://accautomation.ca/omron-cp1h-compare-instructions Omron CP1H Data Shifting Instructions https://accautomation.ca/omron-cp1h-data-shifting-instructions There are several reasons why we are using the Omron CP1H Controller. Here are just a few. - Standalone PLC with built-in I/O - Communication ability - Ethernet Port, RS232, RS485 - support for protocols such as Modbus, Host Link, ASCII (No Protocol) - Built-in Analog inputs and outputs - 4 axis control of motion - 4 high-speed counters - robust instruction set (similar to CS and CJ series) - Ability to expand the system with a variety of modules The Omron CP1 series of programmable logic controllers consists of three different units. CP1E is the cost-effective unit, CP1L is the high-performing controller that can come with embedded Ethernet, and CP1H is the position control and comprehensive programmable logic controller. We will be looking at the CP1H for this series, but most of the information can also be applied to the CP1E and the CP1L controllers. ACC Automation https://www.accautomation.ca
