Setting Up a Demo Unit

SLC 500 demo units are available with either a fixed controller or modular
controller. This manual assumes you are using a modular controller demo unit for
all the programming exercises. If you use a fixed controller demo unit, you will
need to use different configuration information and I/O addresses in the exercises.
This is explained later.

The figure that follows shows an SLC 500 modular controller demo unit. It is
completely wired, with 12 external inputs (6 push buttons and 6 selector switches)
and 8 external outputs (pilot lights).

In setting up your system, place the demo unit near your personal computer. Note
the On/Off Power Switch and the Power Supply Receptacle on the demo. Make
certain that the power switch is Off, then insert one end of the power cord into the
power supply receptacle and the other end into an electrical socket.
