Expert Solution & Answer
Chapter 2, Problem 39RQ
Explanation of Solution
a.
Conversion of power supply:
- Generally, the processor section, memory section and an I/O module requires a DC voltage of 5VDC.
- When these sections of modules are plugged int...
Explanation of Solution
b.
Hold-up time:
- When the power is dismissed suddenly, it can cause damage to PLC or sometimes, it can even completely hold the process control operation abruptly.
- To avoid this situation, PLC must be able to hold up the time...

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.
