    PLC stands for programmable logic controller and is used to control particular operations in a plant. DCS or distributed control system is used to control an entire plant and consists of a network of interconnected PLCs and other devices. SCADA, or supervisory control and data acquisition software, is used with industrial control systems to monitor and control the system. Specific PLC manufacturers provide compatible SCADA software to interface with their PLCs to monitor and control the automation process.

    PLC - Programmable Logical Controller (Digital computer device)

    DCS - Distributed Control System ( Network of Interconnected devices including


    number of PLC’s )

    SCADA - Supervisory Control and Data Acquistion ( software for industrial


    control system )

    PLC manufacturer provides a specific SCADA software to control their PLC

    Ex- for OMRON PLC the SCADA software use is CX- Supervisor

    For MITSUBISHI PLC – Uniware

    For simenes – Win cc and internal on TIA portal

    PLC are used to control the particular operation in a plant —but —DCS is
    used to control the entire Plant

    DCS is used when PLC’s are not sufficient to control the entire automation
    process ( more number of inputs and outputs)

    PLC
     It is device which is used to control the process (or) outputs connected to it.
     PLC will control the output based on the input program.

     PLC is a digital computer used for Industrial process automation.


     PLC is usually used for controlling medium and some large scale
    applications.
     PLC is used where number of input and output are less (or) we can say in
    hundreds.
    PLC Power supply
    Two types of PLC
    1. With SMPS. (230 v AC)
    2. Without SMPS ( 24 v DC)
    (SMPS- switched mode power supply)

    PLC Memory
    1. Program Memory - to store and execute the program
    2. Data memory - to store the Input and output data

    Communication port
    To interface with pc and to upload(PLC to PC) and to download (PC to PLC) the
    Program.

    Ports used
     RJ 11
     RJ 45
     RS 232
     USB - universal serial bus
     Rs-485
    Programming Language
    1. Structured text
    2. Instruction list
    3. Sequential flow chart
    4. Functional Block diagram
    5. Ladder Diagram
    ( 4 & 5 th type are mostly used and it is simple)

    Input devices
    1. Switches
    2. Push buttons
    3. Sensors.. . Etc

    Output devices
    1. Motor
    2. Lamp
    3. Drilling Machine.. etc

    DCS - Distributed Control System

    Distributed control systems (DCS) are dedicated systems used in manufacturing


    processes that are continuous or batch-oriented.

    Number of power full PLC’s are connected in a DCS


    SCADA

     SCADA is a designing software.


     Inputs and Outputs are user defined ( predefined in PLC).
     SCADA concept was developed as a universal means of remote access to
    a variety of local control modules.
     A PLC may control the flow of the water through a part of an industrial
    process to a presser level.... But SCADA system will allow operators to
    change the preset level value.
     SCADA can allow user to view the entire process in a flow chart and
    graphical structure.
     SCADA is Capable of monitoring the process parameters of the whole
    plant.
