PLC programming involves both direct and indirect addressing. Direct address programming involves writing each ladder logic rung to do the operation required. We often forget about using powerful indirect addressing to solve our logic. Indirect Addressing – Faster PLC Program The below-animated picture will show a simple example of using indirect addressing. This will use … Read more

How to make a Start Stop Jog circuit in a PLC

by

Looking at a stop-start jog circuit in the PLC will help us understand the differences in hard-wiring the circuit and programming. Basic Start Stop Circuit Let’s start with the primary start-stop circuit. Here is what it looks like hard-wired. (Physical switches wired to outputs devices, such as motor contactors and relays.) When the start pushbutton … Read more
