These single parts of a PLC are what make all the other different parts work.
Hint: It's either on or off
What is a Bit?
This is the symbol for a normally open push button
This type of input is either on or off
What is digital?
The IDEC FC6A PLC used for this class has this type of outputs
What are relay?
This type of logic is used to explain a condition where all parts of a series circuit must be true to have an output be true.
What is and logic?
It is made up of 16 bits
What is a Register
This symbol represents
What is a normally closed flow switch
When assigning the inputs in the IDEC FC6A PLC what is input number of the 8th input. (Ix)
What is I7?
This is a best practice for programming concerning outputs
What is grouping them in their own subroutine?
This type of circuit is used to hold an output on with a single momentary press and release of a button
What is latching or sealing
This is the maximum value of a 16 but register
What is 65535?
This type of switch is used to regulate
What is pressure?
A device that measures air pressure and outputs a variable signal is connected to the plc with this type of input.
What is analog?
This special internal relay can be used to flash an output at a one second interval
What is special relay M8121
This data type has 16 bits and has a maximum positive value of 32767
What is a signed integer
0000 0000 0110 1101 has an Octal value of this
What is 155?
When a tank is full it lifts and arm and changes the state of this type of switch
What is a limit switch
These are two types of analog signals.
What is voltage and current?
This is a common design concern when coils are present in a control circuit.
What is a potential voltage surge when the coils are de-energized?
When adding a units designation to a numeric input on the HMI this function is used to store a list of messages or short text.
What is the text manager?
The Hexadecimal equivalent of 8597 is this
What is 2195?
Delay is needed before turning on a motor this symbol is used to represent a normally open time closing contact
This is used to change a 0-20ma current signal to a 0-10V voltage signal.
What is a 500 ohm resistor?
This is what is done to achieve finer control of an analog output.
What is the use of larger numbers when scaling the output?
This function is used when a subroutine is created in a program
What is a label call?
