Question | Answer |
two general categories of memory | Program Files Data Files ( or tables) |
DATA FILES | Input/output locations, internal relays/ timer and counter functions |
User program | causes the controller to operate in a particular manner |
house keeping memory | used to carry out functions needed to make the process operate |
Program files | where the user program is stored, and typically accounts for the majority of systems memory. |
Program Files are broken down in the following sections: | System Functions Reserved User Program (Main) Sub-routines |
System Functions | Contains user entered data such as processor type, I/O config., processor filename, and password. |
Reserved | Memory reserved for processor operation |
User Program (Main) | User entered ladder logic program. |
Sub-routines: | User created sub-routines utilized by main ladder logic program. |
program files are broke into | output input status bit timer counter integer reserved |
Output (File 0) | Stores current state of PLC output terminals |
Input | Stores current state of PLC input terminals |
Status | Used to store information about controller operation. |
Bit/Binary | the bit (or binary) file is used to store information tied to internal relay logic instructions. |
Timer | This file stores information related to timing instructions. The data file includes the state of the control bits, as well as the values of the preset and accumulated words. |
Counter | his file stores information related to counter instructions. This information includes the status of the control bits, as well as the values of the preset and accumulated words. |
Control (File 6) | This file is used to store data related to specific instructions such as bit shift registers and sequencers |
Integer | This file is used for storing numerical data and/or bit information. numbers can range from -32,767 to +32,767, and are displayed decimal format. |
Average scan time ranges | 1mS, to 20mS |
I/O SCAN | records status data of input devices, energizes output devices |
Allen-Bradley scan | each rung in a horizontal |
Modicon scan | use a vertical, column based scan method. |
Programming languages | Ladder Diagram Language -Boolean Language Sequential Function Chart |
