What is PLC?
PLC is a digital computer designed for
multiple inputs and output
arrangements, extended temperature
ranges, immunity to electrical noise, and
resistance to vibration and impact. A
PLC is an example of a real time system.
PLC was introduced in late 1960s
First commercial & successful Programmable Logic
Controllers was designed and developed by Modicon as a
relay replacer for General Motors.
Earlier, it was a machine with thousands of electronic parts.
Later ,in late 1970s,the microprocessor became reality &
greatly enhanced the role of PLC permitting it to evolve form
simply relay to the sophisticated system as it is today.

Major Components of a Common PLC
POWER SUPPLY
Provides the voltage needed to run the primary PLC components
I/O MODULES
Provides signal conversion and isolation between the internal logic-
level signals inside the PLC and the fields high level signal.
PROCESSOR
Provides intelligence to command and govern the activities of the entire
PLC systems.
PROGRAMMING DEVICE
Used to enter the desired program that will determine the sequence of
operation and control of process equipment or driven machine.

PLC operation sequence
1) Self test: Testing of its own hardware and
software for faults.
2) Input scan: If there are no problems, PLC Self test
will copy all the inputs and copy their values
into memory.
Input scan
3) Logic solve/scan: Using inputs, the ladder
logic program is solved once and outputs are
updated. Logic scan
4) Output scan: While solving logic the output
values are updated only in memory when Output
ladder scan is done, the outputs will be scan
updated using temporary values in memory.
Programming Languages of PLC
Most common languages encountered in PLC
programming are:
1) Ladder Logic
2) Functional Block Diagram
3) Sequential Function Chart
4) Boolean mnemonics
PLC Specifications:
Make: LGIS PLC

Model: K7M-DR30UE, MASTER K120S Series
18 Digital Inputs
12 Digital Outputs

Ladder Logic
The ladder logic is the oldestprogramming
language for PLC.
It is well suited to expressCombinational
logic.
The main ladder logic symbols represent
the elements :

Starting of Motor:
Continuous Running of motor when Start Button is
released:
To Stop the Motor :
PLC Examples [Lunch Bell]
Regular output coils are of course an essential part of our programs but we
must remember that they are only TRUE when ALL INSTRUCTIONS
before them on the rung are also TRUE.
Please think back about the lunch bell

example. We would've had to keep
pressing the button for as long as we
wanted the bell to sound. (A momentary
switch) The latching instructions let us use
momentary switches and program the plc
so that when we push one the output turns
on and when we push another the output
turns off.
Example Continued
Here we are using 2 momentary push

button switches. One is physically
connected to input 0000 while the other is
physically connected to input 0001. When
the operator pushes switch 0000 the
instruction "set 0500" will become true
and output 0500 physically turns on.
Even after the operator stops pushing the
switch, the output (0500) will remain on.
It is latched on. The only way to turn off
output 0500 is turn on input 0001. This
will cause the instruction "res 0500" to
become true thereby unlatching or
resetting output 0500.
Example Continued
Lunch Bell with Counter
Here we want to count 5 widgets from input 0001 before turning on output
0500. Sensor 0002 will reset the counter.
Example Continued

Lubricating Oil Controller:
We are controlling lubricating oil
being dispensed from a tank. This
is possible by using two sensors.
We put one near the bottom and
one near the top, as shown in the
picture below
Here, we want the fill motor to

pump lubricating oil into the tank
until the high level sensor turns
on. At that point we want to turn
off the motor until the level falls
below the low level sensor. Then
we should turn on the fill motor
and repeat the process.
Examples continued:
Inputs Address
Low level sensor 0000
High level Sensor 0001
Output Address
Motor 0500

Level Indicator:
Reliability.
Flexibility in programming and reprogramming.
Cost effective for controlling complex systems.
Small physical size, shorter project time.
High speed of operation.
Ability to communicate with computer systems inthe
plant.
Ease of maintenance /troubleshooting.
Reducedspace.
Energy saving.
Disadvantages of PLCs
PLC devices are proprietary it means that part or
software of one manufacturer cant be used in
combination with parts of anothermanufacturer.
Limited design and costoption
Fixed Circuit Operations.
PLCs manufacturers offer only closed architectures.
Wherever automation is desired the PLCs arebest
suited to meet the task.
Few examples of industrieswhere PLCs are used :

1)Robots manufacturing and control
2) Car park control
3) Train control station system
4) Food processing
5)Materials handling
6)Machine tools
7)Conveyer systemetc.
