ACC Automation: PLC & Industrial Control Learning
Practical Tips and Techniques
The Productivity Suite Software allows us to modify our existing program and execute the new code without stopping the PLC scan. This is referred to as online editing. We change the ladder logic code, and when we save it to the P1-M622-16DR PLC, the current PLC scan is held until the new code is written … Read more
We will now look at wiring and testing our first ladder logic program with the P1-M622-16DR Mini PLC. Having created our start-stop motor circuit and learned about the monitoring tools in the Productivity Suite Software, it’s time to connect real-world devices and see our program in action. We will wire a start pushbutton, a stop … Read more
We will now create our first program on the Productivity Mini PLC P1-M622-16DR. Last time we connected the Mini PLC with our computer running the Productivity Suite Software. An Ethernet (RJ45) connection was established to our programmable logic controller. We will now create our first program for our Productivity Mini PLC. Our program will be … Read more
We will connect the Productivity Mini PLC P1-M622-16DR to our computer running the Productivity Suite Software. An Ethernet (RJ45) communication link will be made to our programmable logic controller. The P1-M622 series packs six communication ports into a standalone package smaller than your hand. That’s USB-C programming, dual Ethernet ports, RS-232, RS-485, and a microSD … Read more
Did you know that the average industrial control panel has shrunk by nearly 40% over the past two decades, yet the demand for functionality has tripled? That stat alone tells you everything about where automation is headed. The days of massive control cabinets taking up half your floor space are fading fast. Enter the Productivity1000 … Read more
