Support software
All PLC can recognize is machine language. The reason why it can use mnemonic language, ladder diagram language, flowchart language, and even gaoji language is due to
Various software developed to use these languages.
Mnemonic language is a basic and simple PLC language. It is similar to the assembly language of a computer, and the instruction system of a PLC is expressed in this language. this
Each language only uses textual symbols, and the programming tools used are simple. A simple programmer is sufficient. So, most PLCs are equipped with this language.
Ladder diagram language is a graphical language that uses symbols similar to relay circuit diagrams to express the logical relationships of PLC control. This language corresponds to symbolic language
It is easy to convert to each other and is easy for electrical engineers to understand and become familiar with, so it is widely used, and almost all PLCs have developed this language. Because it uses
Winter shaped expression, small programmers are not good at using it. Programmers with larger LCD screens are needed to use it. Most of it is only used when programming PIC on a computer
Use this language.

PLC was developed after the introduction of microprocessing technology through relay control, and can be conveniently and reliably used for on-off control. Due to the fact that analog quantities can be converted into digital quantities, which are only multi bit switching quantities, the converted analog quantities can also be reliably processed and controlled by the PLC. Due to the frequent occurrence of analog quantities in continuous production processes, analog quantity control is sometimes referred to as process control. Analog quantities are mostly non electrical quantities, while PLC can only handle digital quantities and electrical quantities. All conversions between them require sensors to convert analog quantities into digital quantities. If this electric quantity is not standard, it needs to go through a transmitter to convert the non-standard electric quantity into standard electrical signals, such as 4-20mA, 1-5V, 0-10V, and so on. At the same time, there must be an analog input unit (A/D) to convert these standard electrical signals into digital signals; Analog output unit (D/A) to convert digital signals processed by PLC into analog signals – standard electrical signals. So the conversion between standard electrical signals and digital quantities requires various operations. This requires a clear understanding of the resolution of the analog unit and the standard electrical signal.
