How to convert the clips from DIN Rail to Back Panel Mounting Position Recommendations
— The system designer should provide enough protection for critical loads against any active faults
1 2 which may not be indicated by any of the indicating LEDs on PLC. Some of the active faults may
DIN Rail Mounting prove to be dangerous depending upon the application. Situations which lead to heavy breakdown
Remove the spring
position of the clip or cause danger to the human life or the machine itself must be provided with adequate safety
from its position
measures. To avoid dangerous situation occurring due to an active fault, the system engineer should
incorporate external protective device (e.g. Wiring of an NC contact of over-travel limit switch or
Emergency OFF push button or a motor overload contact etc. in series with travel / motor control
contactor).
— For very critical output user can rewire the output to an input so that, the latter can be used as a
monitor over the proper execution of output.
Cable Routing
All the normal precautions concerning the wiring and protection of an electronic equipment in an industrial
3 4 environment should be observed. All cables should be away from EMI and RFI. In particular, following
recommendations should be complied with, as far as possible.
Slide the clip outward Install the spring Inside the enclosure
as shown — All power circuit wiring (connected to power contactors, solenoids etc.) should be kept separate from
input / output wiring.
— Input wiring and output wiring (especially relay output) should be separately bundled and kept
isolated as far as possible.
— Shielding (connected properly to the factory Earth) for transformers is strongly recommended.

D Basic Building Blocks of the PLC
The concept of PLCs evolved from the necessity of simplifying hardwired control panels. Thus the sensing
elements (input elements) and the actuating elements (output elements) are the only elements that are
hardwired to the inputs and outputs of the PLC. Their interconnection is done by a software program.

Input elements are those which sense the dynamic status of a machine operation or process. Elements

Output elements are mainly actuators like, Contactors, Relays, Solenoid Valves etc. Indicating lamps,
24 V GND
Annunciation lamps are also classified as output elements. These elements are directly driven through
the PLC outputs or in case of high power outputs such as motors through external contactors.

Flags I/O Listing

Flags are just like auxiliary relays used in conventional electrical interlocking systems. These are similar Inputs PB1 Outputs S1 Flags R1

Contactors, Relays, Solenoids etc. cannot be directly interfaced to the flags. It is to be noted that the flags LS1 R3
don't have any physical existence. They are just the memory locations inside the PLC.

User Memory 2) Program processing

The Micro PLC is provided with onboard 8K EEPROM. This EEPROM stores the user program. The PLC executes the user program taking into consideration the status from image memories and not
that of actual physical elements. Depending upon the logic, the O/P image memory is updated as the
PLC Scan program execution progresses and result is conveyed to the CPU memory for intermediate storage.
The PLC scan consists of
1) Input processing I/P Image Logic O/P Image

When the PLC is performing this scan, it is said to be in RUN mode, else it is said to be in Stop mode.

During I/P scan the PLC reads the ON/OFF status of inputs and stores them in the I/P image memory On completing the execution of all instructions (logic scan), the above stored output image memory is
before execution of program. This information is stored and held valid till the next scan of input module. transferred to output module which will physically change the status of the output on the PLC

depending upon the logical status of Input 1000.0, is as follows -
Similarly the O/P too will be a function of scan time of PLC since the O/Ps are functions of the I/P images
which get updated during subsequent PLC scan. The physical O/P response thus will be a function of
PLC scan time in addition to the energizing time of the O/P relay. A B A B A B A B

beginning of the Outputs scan of the same scan. Its status remains unchanged till the beginning of the
output scan in Scan 2. In the Input scan of Scan 2, the Input 1000.0 is found to be OFF. So irrespective
of it becoming ON during the logic scan, the output 0000.0 is made off during output scan in Scan 2,. In
Scan 3, the Input 1000.0 is found to be ON again so the output 0000.0 is made on during the output scan.
In Scan 4, again the Input is found to be OFF so the output is again made OFF during the output scan.

Improving Input / Output response The PLC identifies the different elements such as inputs, outputs, flags etc. with some unique numbers
called as address. The addressing scheme for these elements is as follows –

Flag Addressing Table Addressing

Bit Addressing Word Addressing Constant words are memory locations in which the data of fixed nature is stored. They are arranged
(512 Flag Bits) (32 Flag Words) in groups to form tables. There are 100 tables addressed from 00 to 99 and each table can contain
maximum 1000 constant words (Refer Chapter 5 for more details)
While defining the values of constant words, the tables are addressed as TBL00 to TBL99. When the
2000.0 to 2000.F 02000 Tables are accessed in the ladder they are addressed as 40000 to 40099 corresponding to TBL00 to
2001.0 to 2001.F 02001 TBL99.

RAM Word Addressing

Apart from the different input, output, flag words, there are certain read/write words which are
available to the user as an inherent feature of the system. These words can be used for some
temporary storage of data or used in function blocks. The difference between RAM words and Flag
words is that the individual bits of the flag words can be accessed and used directly. However, the
individual bits of the RAM words cannot be accessed and used directly.
There are 512 RAM words or registers available in PLC. The address of these words are from 20000
to 20511. (Refer Appendix 2)

When enable (ENBL) input is ON, the function block searches for occurrence of a bit which is ON in the
word, specified in WORD NO. The searching is carried out from Least Significant Bit (LSB) to Most
Significant Bit (MSB). The location or bit number in that word where a bit is found ON is available in a word
specified by FNDAT and the output bit FND will be ON. In case of multiple ON bits, the searching stops
at the first occurrance. If the output bit FND is not ON, then the word does not contain any bit that is ON
and also the value of FNDAT does not hold good.

When the enable (ENBL) input is ON then each bit of the word in DATA is shifted right by a value specified
in THRU. The status of C_IN is copied into Most Significant Bit (MSB) on every shift operation.The shifted
word thus obtained is stored in RESULT. The status of COUT is updated by Least Significant Bit (LSB)
which is shifted out during the last shift operation carried. The COUT output may be connected to C_IN
input of next SFTRT block for cascading. The output bit PFLO carries the logical status of ENBL input.

* Alphanumeric Display * Frequency Measurement
* High speed counter * Constant Scan
* Pulse catch Input * Real Time Clock
* Pulse Output
Alphanumeric Display
The PLC system provides a 5 x 7 dot matrix 4 character alphanumeric LED display.To display any
alphanumeric character it is necessary to write its equivalent ASCII code into system words 30016 or 30017.
Example : To display 1234
1 2 3 4 Alphanumeric display
char1 char2 char3 char4
System word 30016 $32 31

are $31, $32, $33, $34 respectively
System word 30017 $34 33

The ASCII code for 1 is 31H 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 1 = $31 2000.0 | TONO.1--#00003------2--| 2000.0
The ASCII code for B is 42H 0 1 0 0 0 0 1 0 = $42 ---|/|----| ENBL PRESET DONE |-------------------------------( )---

The ASCII code for 2 is 32H 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 0 = $32 | 020001 |
Thus it is required to write a VALUE OF $3141 in system word 30016 and $4232 in system word 30017. | CURNT RUN |
|------------------------|
This could be done by updating system words 30016 and 30017 in ladder using, appropriate function
blocks or by modifying the system words 30016 and 30017 in on line using programming devices
"PG–308" or "DOX–MINI". The use of Alphanumeric display can be made for following : RUNG NUMBER : 1

Pulse catch inputs The configuration of the Inputs 1000.2 and 1000.3 as Pulse Catch Inputs is done as follows -
Inputs 1000.2 and 1000.3 can be software configured as pulse catch inputs. With pulse catch function Normal input Pulse Catch input
enabled, you can catch short pulses with 500 μS. or more regardless of PLC scan time. System bits Input 1000.2 3002.3 is OFF 3002.3 is ON
3002.3 & 3002.4 are used for initializing the inputs 1000.2 & 1000.3 as catch inputs respectively. The
initialization of these inputs must be done during the first logic scan only. Input 1000.3 3002.4 is OFF 3002.4 is ON
The pulse catch input latches the pulse of 500 microsec or more till it is read either in the Input scan or
1 1 by the IMM-IN function block in the user program. As shown in the graph, the pulse to be 'caught', is read
Scan Scan Input Reading in input scan. Once read, the pulse catch mechanism is again set to catch next pulse. The pulses
appearing in-between the latching once and reading by the CPU, are not recognized by the system.

Self Tests
The Micro PLC is specially designed for working in industrial environment and does not require regular
maintenance. The processor, during the power ON and during the normal course of program execution,
continuously carries out specific self tests to ensure the healthy and trouble free operation of PLC. In case
processor detects any fatal error in the PLC hardware, depending upon the type of error, it either
generates some alarm signals for user program or goes in STOP mode to avoid any accident on the
automated system. The results of these tests are displayed on the front panel of the processor module.
The status of their lights enable the operator to diagnose the cause of the failure and take the appropriate
remedial action.

CPU MEM LO BAT Pressure Switches
Due to pressure fluctuations pressure switches in hydraulic and pneumatic systems, get off momentarily
after activation. This results in malfunctioning of the process. Thus whenever pressure switches are
interfaced to PLC, it becomes necessary to introduce a small delay in the activation to deactivation of the
the pressure switch sensing. In the example given below it is assumed that the input is wired as a
normally open contact of pressure switch.
10.6 A.1.1
Example : DC Power Supply for Inputs
The power supply for inputs should be as recommended on page number 9.2. Special emphasis should

( )
2000.1 Frequency of Inputs
For the inputs to get sensed ( either as ON or OFF ) the status change should remain for a minimum
1000.0 2000.1 amount of time. This time is scan time plus the hardware debouncing delay ( @ 10 milliseconds). Thus if
( ) any input is changing the status at a faster rate it may not get sensed correctly. This may happen for e.g.
2000.0 in case the proximity switch input is used to count the number of revolutions etc.

( ) It is necessary to install fuses of suitable rating between individual output and load. Also, connect R-C
and MOV across the outputs for AC loads and Free Wheel diodes for DC loads, externally.
In this way, the ON to OFF transition of pressure switch can be sensed after 3 scan delays by a flag bit
2000.2. Thus flag bit 2000.2 will now represent the correct status of the pressure switch 1000.0 Original Equipment Manufacturers

MSB LSB The binary numbering system uses a number set that consists of two digits viz., numbers 0 AND 1.
Each digit in a binary number has a weightage expressed as a power of '2'. The decimal equivalent
B15 B14 B13 B12 B11 B10 B9 B8 B7 B6 B5 B4 B3 B2 B1 B0 of binary number is computed by multiplying each binary digit by its corresponding weightage and
1 0 0 1 0 1 1 0 1 1 0 0 0 0 1 1 adding these numbers together.

Bit – Bit means binary digit. It is the smallest piece of digital information. It can be either 0 (OFF) = 26
or 1 (ON).
Nibble – Four bits grouped together form nibble.

2. Hexadecimal Numbering System Decimal / Hexadecimal / Binary Numbering System :
The hexadecimal numbering system has a number set of 16 digit viz. the numbers 0-9 and the letters
Decimal Hexa- Binary
A to F ( decimal numbers 10-15 respectively). Each digit in a hexadecimal number has a weightage decimal
expressed as a power of '16'. A hexadecimal number can be converted to a decimal number by 0 0 0000
multiplying the hexadecimal digit by its corresponding weightage,expressed as a power of '16' and 1 1 0001
then adding these numbers together. 2 2 0010

Conversion from binary to hexadecimal – B) OR Gates – The output of an OR gate is 1 if one or more inputs are 1.
For converting binary number to hexadecimal numbers, group the binary number into nibbles. Convert The Boolean expression for OR gate is shown in the figure. The expression is to read as "Y equals A
these nibbles to corresponding hexadecimal numbers. For this refer the comparison of numbering or B - ------ or N ". Figure. shows the truth table for two input OR gate.
systems given earlier. e.g. convert binary number 0110 1100 1001 1010 to hexadecimal. C) XOR Gates – The output of a XOR gate is 1 if odd number of inputs are 1.
The Boolean expression for XOR gate is shown in the figure. The expression is to read as "Y equals
binary number A XOR B XOR ------- XOR N ". Figure shows the truth table for two input XOR gate.
D) NOT Gates – The output of a NOT gate is 1 if the input is 0 and vice versa.
0110 1100 1001 1010
The Boolean expression for NOT gate is shown in the figure. The expression is to read as "Y is not
↓ ↓ ↓ ↓ equal to A ". Figure shows the truth table for one input NOT gate.
6 C 9 A
Thus the corresponding hexadecimal number will be 6C9A.

For converting from hexadecimal to binary the reverse process is to be followed i.e. convert each
hexadecimal digit to binary (nibble). Join these to get the actual binary number. Y = AB .... N Y = A + B + ... + N Y = A ⊕ B ⊕ ... ⊕ N y=A
