This exercise is designed to familiarize you with the operation of LogixProand to step you through the process of creating, editing and testing simple PLCprograms utilizing the Relay Logic Instructions supported by RSLogix.
The program editing window should contain a single rung. This is the End ofProgram rung and is always the last rung in any program. If this is the only rungvisible then your program is currently empty.
If your program is not empty, then click on the File menu entry at the topof the screen and select "New" from the drop-down list. A dialog box will appearasking for you to select a Processor Type. Just click on "OK" to accept thedefault TLP LogixPro selection.
The simulator screen shown above, should now be in view. For this exercisewe will be using the I/O simulator section, which consists of 32 switches andlights. Two groups of 16 toggle switches are shown connected to 2 Input cardsof our simulated PLC. Likewise two groups of 16 Lights are connected to twooutput cards of our PLC. The two input cards are addressed as "I:1" and "I:3"while the output cards are addressed "O:2" and "O:4".
Use your mouse to click on the various switches and note the change in thestatus color of the terminal that the switch is connected to. Move your mouseslowly over a switch, and the mouse cursor should change to a hand symbol,indicating that the state of switch can be altered by clicking at this location.When you pass the mouse over a switch, a "tool-tip" text box also appears andinforms you to "Right Click to Toggle Switch Type". Click your right mousebutton on a switch, and note how the switch type may be readily changed.
Collapse the I/O simulation screen back to it's normal size by clicking onthe same (center) button you used to maximize the simulation's window. You shouldnow be able to see both the simulation and program windows again. If you wish,you can adjust the relative size of these windows by dragging the bar thatdivides them with your mouse.
I want you to now enter the following single run program which consists ofa single Input instruction (XIC - Examine If Closed) and a single Outputinstruction (OTE - Output Energize). There's more than one way to accomplishthis task, but for now I will outline what I consider to be the mostcommonly used approach.
First click on the "New Rung" button in the User Instruction Bar. It's thefirst button on the very left end of the Bar. If you hold the mousepointer overany of these buttons for a second or two, you should see a short "ToolTip" whichdescribes the function or name of the instruction that the button represents.
You should now see a new Rung added to your program as shown above, and theRung number at the left side of the new rung should be highlighted. Note thatthe new Rung was inserted above the existing (END) End Of Program Rung.Alternatively you could have dragged (left mouse button held down) the Rungbutton into the program window and dropped it onto one of the locating boxesthat would have appeared.
Now click on the XIC instruction with your left mouse button (Left Click) andit will be added to the right of your highlighted selection. Note that thenew XIC instruction is now selected (highlighted). Once again, you could havealternatively dragged and dropped the instruction into the program window.
If you accidentally add an instruction which you wish to remove, just LeftClick on the instruction to select it, and then press the "Del" key on yourkeyboard. Alternatively, you may right click on the instruction and then select"Cut" from the drop-down menu that appears.
Double Click (2 quick left mousebutton clicks) on the XIC instruction and a textbox should appear which will allow you to enter the address (I:1/0)of the switch we wish to monitor. Use the Backspace key to get rid of the "?"currently in the textbox. Once you type in the address, click anywhere elseon the instruction (other than the textbox) and the box should close.
Right Click on the XIC instruction and select "Edit Symbol" from thedrop-down menu that appears. Another textbox will appear where you cantype in a name (Switch-0) to associate with this address. As before, aclick anywhere else will close the box.
Enlarge the Simulation window so that you can see both the Switches andLamps, by dragging the bar that separates the Simulation and Program windowsto the right with your mouse. Now click on Switch I:1/00 in the simulatorand if all is well, Lamp O:2/00 should illuminate.
Toggle the Switch On and Off a number of times and note the change invalue indicated in the PLC Panel's status boxes which are being updatedconstantly as the PLC Scans. Try placing the PLC back into the "PGM" modeand then toggle the simulator's Switch a few times and note the result.Place the PLC back into the "Run" mode and the Scan should resume.
We are usually told to think of the XIC instruction as an electricalcontact that allows electrical flow to pass when an external switch isclosed. We are then told that the OTE will energize if the flow is allowedto get through to it. In actualfact the XIC is a conditional instruction which tests any bit that weaddress for Truth or a 1.
Now add a second rung to your program as shown below. This time instead ofentering the addresses as you did before, try dragging the appropriate addresswhich is displayed in the I/O simulation and dropping it onto the instruction.
Note that the XIO instruction which Tests for Zero or False has it'saddress highlighted in yellow. This indicates that the instruction is True, whichin the case of an XIO, means that the bit addressed is currently a Zero or False.
This is probably a good time to practice your dragNdrop skills. Try movinginstructions from rung to rung by holding the left mouse button down while over an instruction, and then while keeping the mouse button down, movethe mouse (and instruction) to a new location. Try doing the same with completerungs by dragging the box at the left end of the rung and dropping it in a newlocation.
Once you feel comfortable with dragNdrop, ensure that your program once againlooks like the one pictured above, Now download your program to the PLC and placethe PLC into the Run Mode. Toggle both Switch-0 and Switch-1 on and off a numberof times and observe the effects this has on the lamps. Ensure that you aresatisfied with the operation of your program before proceeding further.
For this exercise we need two Normally Open momentary switches. Using yourright mouse button, click on switch "I:1/2" and "I:1/3", changing them to N.O.pushbuttons. Now add the following two rungs to your program. Once you have therungs entered correctly, download and run your modified program.
Activate the Start and Stop switches and ensure that the OTL and OTU outputinstructions are responding as outlined in your text. Once you have the lamp ON,could you turn it off if power was lost in the Stop Switch circuit?
Now modify your program so that it operates correctly when you substitutethe N.O. Stop switch (I:1/03) with a Normally Closed Switch. If we now lost poweron the N.C. Stop switch circuit, what would happen to the state of Lamp(O:2/02)?
