What is automation?
Automation (ancient Greek: = self dictated)
or industrial automation is the use of
electronic controllers to control industrial
machinery and processes, replacing human
operators.
It is a step beyond mechanization, where
human operators are provided with
machinery to help them in their jobs.

Automating the Process:


Step 1 :Replacement of humans muscles (hands) by some
actuators, e.g. the pneumatic cylinders
Step 2 :Replacement of humans brain by a logic signal
processing device, e.g. PLC, electrical relay circuit.
Step 3 :Replacement of humans senses (eyes, ears, etc.)
by some input devices (electrical sensors).
Step 4 :Use set of instructions to control output element
according to the signal inputs present.

What is PLC?
PLC is an abbreviation for Programmable Logic
Controller.
PLC is a microprocessor-based electronic device.
This equipment controls a process/ machine.
a printing machine for printing newspapers, a bagging
plant to bag cement, a press for pressing plastic-shaped
parts,

This process occurs according to the instructions


of a program in the memory of the equipment.

Firmware
Firmware is the software part, which is
permanently installed and supplied by the PLC
manufacturer.
This includes fundamental system routines, used
for starting the processor after the power has been
switched on.
Additionally, there is the operating system in the
case of programmable logic controllers, which is
generally stored in a ROM, a read-only memory,
or in the EPROM.

Ladder Diagram
The ladder programs allow the CPU to emulate the flow of
electric current from a power source through a series of
logical input conditions that in turn enable logical output
conditions.
The logic is separated into networks.
The program is executed as dictated by the program, one
network at a time, from left to right and then top to bottom.
Once the CPU has reached the end of the program, it starts
over again at the top of the program.

Elements of Ladder Diagram


Contacts Represent a switch through which power can flow.
Coils Represent a relay or output that is energized by power flow.
Boxes Represent a function (for instance, a timer, counter, or
mathematical operation) that is executed when power flow reaches the
box.
A network is composed of these elements and represents a complete
circuit.
Power flows from the left power rail (represented in the LAD editor by
a vertical line on the left side of the window) through the closed
contacts to energize the coils or boxes.

There are no contacts and coils, but there are
equivalent instructions that appear as box
instructions.
The program logic is derived from the connections
between these box instructions.
The output from one instruction (such as an AND
box) can be used to enable another instruction
(such as a timer) to create the necessary control
logic.

Statement List
Statement List (STL) editor allows to create
control programs by entering the instruction
mnemonics.
This text-based concept is very similar to
assembly language programming.
The CPU executes each instruction, in the order
dictated by the program, from top to bottom, and
then restarts at the top.

LD Language
Ladder logic is easy for beginning programmers to
use.
Graphical representation is often easy to
understand, and is popular around the world.
The LAD editor can be used with both the
SIMATIC and IEC 1131-3 instruction sets.
You can always use the STL editor to display a
program created with the LAD editor.

FBD Language
The graphical logic gate style of representation is
good for following program flow.
The FBD editor can be used with both the
SIMATIC and IEC 1131-3 instruction sets.
You can always use the STL editor to display a
program created with the LAD editor.
The expandable AND/OR boxes make it easier to
draw complex input combinations.

STL Language
STL is most appropriate for experienced programmers.
STL sometimes allows you to solve problems that you
cannot solve easily with the LAD or FBD editor.
While you can always use the STL editor to view or edit a
program that was created with the SIMATIC LAD or FBD
editors, the reverse is not always true.
You cannot always use the SIMATIC LAD or FBD editors
to display a program that was written with the STL editor.

Silo control system for two bulk


materials

A mixing plant permits a selection between two


bulk materials per selector switch (S2).
In switch position 1 (S2 = 0 signal), bulk material
A reaches a mixing container, if push button S1 is
actuated simultaneously.
If selector switch S2 is in position 2 (S2 = 1
signal) and push button S1 is actuated bulk
material B is conveyed.
Silo A is opened via cylinder 1A (solenoid 1M1),
Silo B via cylinder 2A (solenoid 2M1).

How the Control Program Works


PLC performs the following operations repeatedly:

Read the states of the input devices.


Copy input status into the Process-Image Input
(PII) register.
CPU execute the user program stored in the Load
Memory and stores the results of the program
logic in various memory areas including ProcessImage Output (PIQ) register.
Transfer status from the PIQ to the field outputs.

Scan Cycle of the PLC


Reading the inputs: The S7-200 copies the state of the physical
inputs to the process-image input register.
Executing the control logic in the program: The S7-200 executes
the instructions of the program and stores the values in the
various memory areas.
Processing any communication requests: The S7-200 performs
any tasks required for point-to-point or network
communications.
Executing the CPU self-test diagnostics: The S7-200 ensures
that the firmware, the program memory, and any expansion
modules are working properly.
Writing to the outputs: The values stored in the process-image
output register are written to the physical outputs.
Introduction to PLC

Nikini Automation Systems (Pvt) Ltd

11/19/2010 8:48 AM

Nikini

The execution of the scan cycle is dependent upon whether the S7-200
is in STOP mode or in RUN mode. In RUN mode, your program is
executed; in STOP mode, your program is not executed.

PLC scan cycle time


The time that the processor requires for this
execution is called a cycle time.
This time is dependent on the number
instructions and types of commands.
Also cycle time is dependent on CPU speed
and I/O conversion time delay

Otherwise, the counter bit turns off.
The counter is reset when the Reset (R) input turns on, or when the

Types of signals

Binary signal
Binary signals can take the value of 2 possible states.
Signal state 1 = voltage available = e.g. Switch on
Signal state 0 = voltage not available = e.g. Switch off

In control engineering DC voltage of 24V is used.


+ 24 V = 1 for this input.
0 V = 0

Types of signals

Analog signal
Can take many values within a certain range
- Examples
Temperature -50 ... +150C
Current flow 0 ... 200 l/min
Number of revolutions 500 ... 1500 r/min
These measurements are converted to currents or resistances.
analog information are converted to a voltage, current or resistance
value. (analog to digital conversion -A/D conversion.)
