Practical Tips and Techniques
To get started with the XY-MD02 temperature and humidity sensor, we will be using the program PuTTY for serial communication. We will use RS485 serial communication to establish a connection and show how to read the values and parameters of the XY-MD02 sensor effectively. Additionally, we will explore the automatic polling feature, which allows for … Read more
Automated car parking is a great way to learn PLC programming. It is easily understood how this system is to function and operates. The 3D graphics on the machine simulator are good for visually seeing this interaction between the PLC and the virtual machine. Using the five steps to PLC programming development, we will determine … Read more
EasyPLC Software Suite is a complete PLC, HMI, and Machine Simulator Software package. This PLC learning package includes a Machine Simulator (MS). This virtual 3D world with real-time graphics and physical properties can communicate to several different programmable logic controllers. (PLC) We will be developing a Click PLC program for a transfer line. This is … Read more
PLC outputs are the next component of our PLC block diagram. The PLC program will control the outputs of the PLC. Controlling outputs is one way to get the inputs to change. We will be looking at digital and analog outputs that can be wired to the programmable logic controller. PLC troubleshooting outputs will also … Read more
Many questions come from serial communications using the Click PLC. Most of these questions deal with communication timing when using multiple send-and-receive instructions. We will show you how to deal with serial communication timing in the Click PLC. Receive and Send instructions will allow you to send and receive serial data to an external device. … Read more
