Program Plan Intro

Programmable Logic Controller (PLC):

  • Programmable Logic Controller (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 control programming language.

Timer:

  • A timer refers to an instruction which waits for an amount of time before performing something.
  • A timer counts fractions of seconds or seconds using the internal CPU clock.
  • There are mainly three types of PLC timer delays, such as ON-delay timer, OFF-delay timer, and retentive timer ON.

I need help to resolve the case, thank you
In 32-bit MSAM, You were given the following negative array. write a program that converts each array element to its positive representation. Then add all these array elements and assign them to the dl register. .data    myarr sbyte -5, -6, -7, -4.code     ; Write the rest of the program and paste the fully working code in the space below.   the dl register should have the value 22 after summing up all elements in the array.
