Chapter 6, Problem 2P
Program Plan Intro

Break-make pushbutton switch:

  • Break-before-make pushbutton is a switch whose top level section contacts are Normally Closed (NC) and bottom level section contacts are Normally Open (NO).
  • The top level contacts will be opened before the bottom level contacts get closed when the pushbutton is pressed.
  • An electrical symbol used to represent break-make pushbutton switch is given below.

Programmable Logic Controllers, Chapter 6, Problem 2P

Given:

The conventional hardwired relay circuit should perform the following circuit functions when two break-make pushbuttons are used.

  • The light L1 must turn ON when pushbutton PB1 is pressed.
  • The light L2 must turn ON when pushbutton PB2 is pressed.
  • The pushbuttons must be interlocked electrically, such that L1 and L2 cannot be turned ON simultaneously.

Construct a basic stop/start seal-in circuit.   Energize an internal relay to seal-in (latch) the circuit.  write the circuit in both Ladder Logic and Function Block Diagram (FBD).  Hardware setup: Input 1 - Normally closed stop pushbutton, Input 2 - Normally open start pushbutton. Output 1 - A Red light to indicate the circuit is not energized. Output 2 - A Green light to indicate the circuit is energized. Label all inputs and outputs in the plc program. Write the program in both ladder and function block diagram (FBD).
