Programming Technique

Chapter 25

25-7

Here is an explanation of each rung:

Rung 1: The Get instruction at address 201 multiplies the value of

100

o

C by 9 and stores 900 at address 203.

Rung 2: The Get instruction at address 204 divides 5 into 900 and

stores the quotient, 180, in address 205.

Rung 3: The Get instruction at address 207 adds 32 to the value

180 which is located at get addresses 205. The sum of 212
is stored at address 210. Thus 100

o

C = 212

o

F.

Rung 4: If the displayed temperature is less than 190

o

F, the timer

initiates timing for three seconds.

Rung 5: If three seconds have elapsed, an output at address 011/15

will energize a heating device which will bring the
temperature back into the desired range.

Rung 6: Counter 034 counts the number of times the value falls

below 190

o

F. Therefore, when rung 4 is true the

counter increments.

Rung 7: When the temperature equals 212

o

F latching 011/16

enables an alarm.

Rung 8: To shut the alarm off, unlatch 011/16. To do this, an

operator would press a pushbutton connected to
address 011/16.

Application Two (

o

C to

o

F Every Five Seconds)

This application is similar to application one, but we are only recording the
converted temperature reading every five seconds (Figure 25.7).
