Practical Tips and Techniques
Every program usually has some kind of data movement. This is the ability to transfer information from one area of the controller to another. The Omron CP1H series of programmable logic controllers provide several different ways to manipulate this information. We will be looking at several different ways in which data movement can happen with … Read more
The Omron CP1H series of programmable logic controllers are capable of having 4096 basic counters. There are two basic counter instructions in the PLC. Each of the basic instructions can be either binary or BCD. The memory area for counters has separate areas for the Counter PVs (Present values) and the Counter Completion Flags. We … Read more
The Omron CP1H series of programmable logic controllers are capable of having 4096 timers. There are twelve different timing instructions in the PLC. Six binary and six BCD instructions for the set values of the timers separate the six basic instructions. The memory area for timers has separate areas for the Timer PVs (Present values) … Read more
The Omron CP1H series of programmable logic controllers have a fixed input and output addressing system. Every PLC has its own way of addressing its inputs and outputs. We will be looking at how the CP1H series of controller addresses its inputs and outputs. Numbering systems used in this controller will also be looked at … Read more
The Omron CP1H series of programmable logic controllers are programmed from CX-Programmer. CX-Programmer is part of the Omron CX-One Factory Automation Integrated Tool Package. This software package integrates support software for Omron PLC and other components. Traditionally you had to purchase and install individual support software compatible with each unit and then connect to each … Read more
We will now look at the system hardware of the Omron CP1H controller. 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 the Omron CP1H is the position control and comprehensive programmable logic controller. … Read more
