Program Plan Intro
a.
Count-Up (CTU) Counter:
- The CTU counter refers to an up counter
- This counter is used to count an event that occurs logically or externally and places that value in the counter’s accumulator.
- The accumulated value can even be maintained during false rung conditions and can be reset back to 0 using reset instruction.
Addition math function:
- Math instructions refer to all output instructions that uses the data of two words or registers and perform the desired function.
- Addition function is used to add one piece of data to another.
- It is also called as ADD.

Timer ON Delay (TON):
- TON refers to an on-delay timer.
- The on-delay timer is the most commonly used timer.
- TON counts the time-based intervals as soon as the instruction becomes true.
- Here, the output changes its state from low to high when the timer provides some time delay (instruction goes from OFF to ON state).
MOV instruction:
- Move (MOV) instruction is used to copy the data of the source register into destination register.
- Here, the contents of the source register will not be altered.
- In other words, it is used to copy the value in one word or register to another word or register.

1- Write a PLC ladder program to implement the process illustrated in Figure.
2- Indicate all the input and output field devices in their un-actuated conditions with symbolic addresses.
The sequence of operation requires that:
Normally open start push button and normally closed stop push button station is used to start and stop the
process.
When the process starts, the tank is empty and solenoid A energizes to start filling the tank with liquid.
As the tank fills, the Empty sensor switch closes.
When the tank is half full, the Mid-full level sensor switch closes and the motor starts running to mix the
liquid.
When the tank is full, the Full level sensor switch closes momentarily so that:
a- The motor stops.
b- Solenoid A is de-energized.
c- Solenoid B is energized to empty the tank.
When the tank is completely empty, the Empty sensor switch opens to de-energize solenoid B.
The start button is pressed to repeat the sequence.

- A PLC is used to control a single-axis robot, in which the axis is driven by a pneumatic cylinder. An output signal to the pneumatic cylinder causes it to extend (ON state). When there is no signal, the pneumatic cylinder retracts (OFF state). The gripper is an also driven by a pneumatic cylinder. The gripper open position is an OFF state and the closed position is an ON state. In order to perform a task, the following sequence of operations must be performed: TH Sequence No. Аxis Gripper OFF OFF 1 ON OFF ON ON 3 OFF ON 4 OFF OFF The process begins when the start bush button is ON and a part triggers a limit switch. For safety, an emergency switch is used to shut off the entire system.
