In the previous two issues of this newsletter, we looked at troubleshooting digital input modules. Basically, we looked for the presence or absence of a voltage. With analog modules, it's trickier ...

The AutomationDirect Productivity2000 programmable logic controller (PLC) is a modular, rack-based system with a full lineup of discrete, analog, and specialty I/O modules providing over 400 local I/O ...

Your first step is to verify that the module is the correct one for this control loop — unless this specific module has worked correctly before. Whether it has or not, you need to use a meter to test ...

New additions to the MAQ20 Industrial Data Acquisition & Control System are strain gage and frequency modules. Related To: Dataforth The MAQ20-BRDG1 strain gage module has four input channels and can ...

The TDAI-2210 also supports modular upgrades, such as a high-end analog module with an MM phono stage and balanced XLR inputs, or an HDMI 2.1 module with additional HDMI inputs and eARC support .

The isolated analog input module presented here is particularly suitable for industrial electronics applications. Sending analog signals from field sensors over long-distance cables is often difficult ...

In this design the industrial digital-input serializer (U1) translates, conditions, and serializes the 24V digital output of sensors and switches to CMOS-compatible signals required by ...

A programmable logic controller (PLC) is an industrial solid-state computer that monitors inputs and outputs, and makes logic-based decisions for automated processes or machines.

Despite this, however, the standard PLC model permeates the structure: the PuffinPLC library offers PLC-like semantics for the modules that wish to use them. For example, inputs can only change at the ...
