Practical Tips and Techniques
In part 1 we added additional discrete digital inputs and outputs modules (cards) to our P1AM-START1 (Industrial Arduino) ProductivityOpen starter kit with Ethernet. A program was then discussed that will print the modules in our system and then set and reset discrete digital inputs and outputs. P1-16TR – Productivity1000 relay output module, 16-point, 6-24 VDC/6-120 … Read more
We will not look at the productivity 1000 plc modbus ascii protocol to the Solo process temperature controller. This will be done in ladder logic on our productivity 1000 PLC. Modbus ASCII is a communication method used for transmitting information over serial lines between electronic devices. The device requesting the information is called the Modbus … Read more
The productivity open Arduino P1AM I/O interface chip-set supports the full suite of Productivity 1000 (P1) Inputs / Outputs expansion modules. These modules are industry approved and proven in the industrial environment. Modern industrial signal levels for digital and analog inputs and outputs are used. P1000 modules available to you include the following: • Discrete … Read more
We will now look at the click plc modbus ascii protocol. This communication will happen in PLC ladder logic and communicate through the serial port (RS485) to a Solo process temperature controller. Modbus ASCII will be the communication protocol. Modbus is a communication method used for transmitting information over serial lines between electronic devices. The … Read more
We will now look at the P1AM Arduino expansion analog modules. This analog expansion is part of the P1000 cards that the P1AM Arduino can use as it’s inputs and outputs. The productivity open P1AM I/O interface chip-set supports the full suite of Productivity 1000 I/O expansion modules. These modules are industry approved and proven … Read more
We will now look at the capacitive pushbutton sensor switch and indicator. Normal pushbuttons on a panel are usually a mechanical device. They can become “sticky” when too much dirt or oil is present. Capacitive push buttons do not have moving parts to stick, so the life expectancy is increased. Disinfectant sprays can be applied … Read more
