Practical Tips and Techniques
The P1AM-100 industrial controller is programmed with the Arduino IDE (Integrated Development Environment). We installed the Arduino IDE, P1AM-100 library and ProductivityBlocks. Using this software we will be setting it up to program our P1AM Arduino industrial controller. The Boards Manager will be used to set up our P1AM-100 Arduino board. We will then ensure … Read more
The Stride Field Remote I/O Modules are simple and compact. They provide an economical means to connect inputs and outputs to an Ethernet Modbus TCP communication network. Every module operates as a standalone Modbus TCP server and can be configured via a built-in web server. We will be looking at the following two Stride Remote … Read more
The cmore EA9 HMI has an event manager that can be used to trigger actions based on various events. We will be adding a Click PLC to our headless RHMI cmore EA9 program that we created last time to communicate to the solo process temperature controller. The Solo will be connected via RS485 using the … Read more
The cmore EA9 HMI can connect to the Solo process temperature controller using the built-in RS485 serial communication port. This will connect up to 32 solo units back to the HMI for display and control. We will be setting up our headless RHMI c-more EA9 to communicate to the Solo process temperature controller. Using the … Read more
We will now look at logging data with time and date in the Click PLC. The Click PLC can perform indirect addressing. This means that I can ask for information to be moved to and from locations in the PLC using a pointer that will indicate the address. Stephen Covey in The 7 Habits of … Read more
Remote access will allow for viewing or controlling the C-More EA9 HMI series. We can use any windows based machine or use the C-More remote HMI App from Apple iTunes store, Google Play or Amazon App Store for mobile devices. This software is available free of charge. Setting up the EA9 series for remote access … Read more
