Higher amperage relay output modules and an 8-point input simulator module are now available from AutomationDirect for the Click series stackable micro brick PLCs. The Click C0-04TRS-10 ($54.00) is a ...
Expanding the SeaDAC family of USB data-acquisition devices, the SeaDAC PLC-16H digital I/O module combines high-current Form C relay outputs and optically isolated inputs. It includes eight SPDT high ...
Addressing the requirements of power switching applications, the ADAM-6066 relay-output module includes Ethernet connectivity, an embedded web server for remote monitoring, and support for Modbus/TCP ...
In our previous issue, we said a digital output module could be tested by using the PLC logic to force the output on and off then and observing the module’s response. If the module doesn't respond, ...
The PuffinPLC Project is an effort to produce a Linux-based GNU Public Licensed Programmable Logic Controller (PLC). PLCs were developed in the 1960s to replace the complex electrical relay circuits ...
When a PLC is used primarily to replace relays, timers, and counters, it's hard to beat the simplicity and usefulness of ladder diagram programming. Their ability to accept programming in ladder ...
With the addition three new 12V DC CPUs, the capable MicroSmart FC6A All-in-One PLC family now offers users more options for automating battery-backed systems, traffic controls, and mobile equipment.
A programmable logic controller (PLC) is an industrial solid-state computer that monitors inputs and outputs, and makes logic-based decisions for automated processes or machines. 1. The image above is ...
