Figure 2b PLC I/O. The system has an emergency facility where if the normally closed emergency stop push-button is operated (tripped) the status is indicated by the yellow lamp and the yellow stack lamp. Once the emergency stop has been tripped it must be reset, first by releasing the "Emergency Stop 1" push-button then pressing the normally open "Reset Button 1" push-button. Sketch a Ladder Diagram programme for the emergency stop logic. (4) 2. When the emergency stop is healthy i.e., not tripped, the conveyor is started by pressing the normally open "Start Button 1" and stopped by pressing the normally closed "Stop Button 1". The "Start Button 1 (light)" and "Stop Button 1 (light)" indicate the status of the conveyor. Sketch a Ladder Diagram programme for the conveyor logic. (4) 3. A second operator station is added to the conveyor system, without the light stack and siren, Figure 2c. Figure 2c Dual Conveyor Control Panels. Modify your programme to accommodate these dual controls given the additional I/O addresses in Figure 2d.

Figure 2d Dual Control Panel I/O For safety of the operators, it has been decided to introduce a delayed start to the conveyor. Therefore, when the conveyor is requested to start, the siren must sound for 3 seconds before it starts. Modify your software to implement this requirement. (Question continues next page) (4) (4) 5. The number of boxes passing along the conveyor must be counted using the sensor at the end of the conveyor. The count must be displayed on both counter displays. Modify your software to implement this requirement. (4) 6. The programmable logic controller operates in a predefined manner, i.e. the PLC scan. Using a diagram briefly explain the operational sequence of the PLC Scan. (5)
