1. Bidirectional Movement of the Cart Implement automatic control of a cart moving back and forth using S7-200. The control process involves pressing the start button, causing the cart to move from left to right (and vice versa). When it reaches the right (or left) limit switch, the cart automatically returns. This back-and-forth movement continues … Read more
Intermediate PLC Programming: Interrupt Priority Design for Timely Response to Critical Tasks! Introduction Hello everyone! Today I want to share a magical technique that can make your PLC program “perceptive” — interrupt priority design. Don’t worry about the technical jargon; I will explain this seemingly profound concept in the most relatable way. By mastering this … Read more
In PLC programming, the physical contact of the stop button is generally connected as normally closed, while in the program, it is written as normally open. This type of stop button only serves as a signal in this equipment.Why is the emergency stop in PLC programming opposite to that of a regular emergency stop button? … Read more
In PLC programming, the positive edge and negative edge are key signal characteristics that trigger logical operations. They are commonly used to avoid signal jitter, achieve precise counting, or control execution order. If not mastered, their usage may lead to program logic confusion, false triggering, or functional failure. The following analysis covers principles, application scenarios, … Read more
