Practical Tips and Techniques
Data logging does not have to be complicated anymore. The BRX Do-More Series PLC can log your specific data up to 32 Gigabits on a Micro SD Card. It will store your data for future data analysis in a CSV (Comma Separated Value) Txt file based on time and/or event. This is all accomplished with … Read more
ACC Automation We would like to take a few minutes and reflect on the past, current and future of ACC Automation. 2017 has been our best year yet thanks to you. Your questions, comments and suggestions have helped us to build the site that you see today. Thank you.
We will now look at using serial Modbus RTU to communicate to a Solo process temperature controller using our BRX Do-More Controller. Serial communication instructions will allow you to send and receive serial data to an external device. The communication method that you setup can be ASCII or numeric (binary). ASCII (American Standard Communication for … Read more
We will now look at the drum instruction in our BRX Do-More Controller. Drum instructions are great tools when you have a simple sequence of events that need to occur at a set time interval or as a result of an event. They mimic an electromagnetic drum sequencer. The BRX Series PLC has a drum … Read more
Math instructions are used to perform mathematical calculations. The BRX Do-More PLC has math instructions that can be used in a wide variety of applications. We will be looking at the INC increment, DEC decrement, LERP linear Interpolation, RANDSEED Random Number Seed, and the MATH Calculated Expression instructions. The automation system that you implement may … Read more
Compare instruction is often used in PLC programs to test pairs of values. The output of this comparison conditions the logical continuity of a rung. The BRX Do-More series of programmable logic controllers have the following compare contact instructions. = (if Equal contact) <> (if Not Equal contact) > (if Greater Than contact) >= (if … Read more
