Standardization of TCP Server Communication for Mainstream PLC Sockets

Standardization of TCP Server Communication for Mainstream PLC Sockets

1. Overview of TCP Server Communication for PLC Sockets: In socket TCP server communication, the server first creates a socket, binds it to a specified IP address and port, and then listens for incoming connections. When a client initiates a connection request, the server establishes a reliable connection through a three-way handshake. The communication protocol … Read more

Writing PLC Programs That Maintenance Engineers Will Thank You For a Lifetime (Standardized Programming Guide)

Writing PLC Programs That Maintenance Engineers Will Thank You For a Lifetime (Standardized Programming Guide)

In non-standard automation projects, the delivery of equipment is just the beginning; the real test lies in subsequent maintenance. A standardized PLC program not only allows maintenance engineers to quickly get up to speed but also significantly reduces equipment failure rates and maintenance costs. Naming Conventions: Let the Program “Speak for Itself” The Golden Rules … Read more

RISC-V Takes Action to Avoid MIPS-like Fragmentation

RISC-V Takes Action to Avoid MIPS-like Fragmentation

Source: Semiconductor Industry Observer With the support of technical heavyweights, RISC-V is continuously growing, but it also brings challenges: encouraging CPU designers to maintain consistency and avoid the kind of fragmentation that occurred with MIPS and Android. In light of this, RISC-V International, which coordinates the development of the open-source instruction set architecture (ISA), has … Read more

Standardization of Mainstream PLC Socket TCP Client Communication

Standardization of Mainstream PLC Socket TCP Client Communication

1. Overview of PLC Socket TCP Client Communication: In socket TCP client communication, the client first calls a system function to create a TCP socket, then initiates a connection request to the server at a specified IP address and port. A reliable connection is established through a three-way handshake. The communication protocol can be customized … Read more

Core of PLC Programming Standardization

Core of PLC Programming Standardization

Why should M and T be avoided in PLC programs? The core logic of programming standardization. 1. Fundamental Flaws of Global Variables In PLC programming, global variables such as M (memory relay) and T (timer) are widely used but have inherent weaknesses: unclear ownership and a scope that covers the entire program. The M and … Read more
