PA - PLC Programming Higher Functions (PLC 233)

As a preparation of controlling analogue signals and closed loop Process Automation equipment, we have to work-out the know-how in Word processing, arithmetic functions of a PLC and analogue in- and output control first. This workshop is providing that know-how using our high sophisticated Process Automation Workstations.

• Functions of the MPS PA Workstations
• Components - specification and function
• Definition of the input and output addresses
• Absolute and symbolic addressing
• Theory of analogue inputs and normalization
• Arithmetic functions of the PLC - theory and exercises
• Project using analogue inputs and normalization to the process variable
• Project using analogue outputs and normalization to the process variable
• Plan, edit and test of a 2-step controller

• understands the difference between binary, analogue and digital signal
• knows the function of components used in Process Automation
• understands the difference between absolute and symbolic addressing
• knows the theory of analogue in- and outputs of a PLC
• is able to plan, edit and test projects using analogue signals
• is able to plan, edit and test normalization of analogue signals
• is able to plan, edit and test a 2-step controller
