CHAPTER 8PROGRAMMING COUNTERS

8-2 Write a program that will implement the following conveyor motor control process:

OPERATIONAL SEQUENCE- The start button is pressed to start the conveyor motor.

- Cases move past the proximity switch and increment the counter's

accumulated value.

- After a count of 13, the conveyor motor stops automatically and the

counters accumulated value is reset to 0.

- The conveyor motor can be stopped and started

manually at any time without loss of the accumulatedcount.

- The accumulated count of the counter can be reset manually at any

time by means of the count reset button.

- The process is repeated when the start button ispressed.

Use the Silo simulator screen and the following addresses to

8-23 Write a program to implement the process illustrated. An up-counter must be programmed as part of a batch-counting operation to sort partsautomatically for quality control. The counter is installed to divert 1 part out of every 10 for

quality control or inspection process. The circuit operates as follows.

- A start/stop pushbutton station is used to turn the conveyor motor on and

off.

- A proximity sensor counts the parts as they pass by on the conveyor.

- When 10 is reached, the counter's output activates the gate solenoid,diverting the part to the inspection line.

- The gate solenoid is energized for 2 s, which allows enough time for the part

to continue to the quality control line.

- The gate returns to its normal position when the 2 s time period ends.

- The counter resets to zero and continues to accumulate counts.

- A reset pushbutton is provided to reset the counter manually.

Use the Silo simulator screen and the following address to simulate the program:

INPUTS OUTPUTS

Conveyor stop PB - I: 1/0 Conveyor motor - O: 1/0

Conveyor start PB - I: 1/1 Solenoid - O: 1/0

CHAPTER 9PROGRAM CONTROL INSTRUCTIONS

9-1 A temporary jumper can be installed in a PLC program in order to force a control ON orOFF as illustrated below. A dedicated I/O address can be used to operate all jumpers.Jumpers that are identified in this way are easy to locate in the program. Simply look for

that particular I/O address and you will find every jumper that is used in the program.

9-1(a) Construct a PSIM program for the generic ladder logic program shown.
