Program Plan Intro

Programmable Logic Controller (PLC):

  • PLC is a specialized computer used in industrial segments to control machines and process.
  • PLC is program that consists of a set of instructions which resembles the controlling functions needed to perform specific tasks.
  • The function of PLC is similar to that of a relay and hence, in an industrial segment a relay is greatly replaced by a suitable PLC.
  • When compared to general Personal Computer (PC), a PLC is available in small and tiny sizes.
  • The basic architecture of a PLC consists of an input-output interface module and a small Central Processing Unit (CPU) that runs by controlling programming language.

Given:

The following assumptions regarding the hardwired control circuit is made.

  • A Normally Open (NO) stop pushbutton is used.
  • A NO run pushbutton is used.
  • The jog pushbutton used here consists of one set of NO contacts.
  • The Overload (OL) contact is hardwired.
  • It consists of an output motor starter relay coil.

Need help answering these questions!1. Design a While loop that lets the user enter a number. The number should be multiplied by 10, and the result stored in a variable named product. The loop should iterate as long as the product contains a value less than 100.   2. Design a For loop that displays the following set of numbers: 0, 10, 20, 30, 40, 50 . . . 1000   3. Convert the While loop in the following code to a Do-While loop:     Declare Integer x = 1     While x > 0        Display "Enter a number."        Input x     End While
