Appendix A: New PLC Users
PLCs, or Programmable Logic Controllers, are electronic control systems based on microprocessors. A PLC performs control functions in accordance with its software program of external automated equipment.
Parts of a PLC
Operating Panel
The operating panel provides what is called the HMI, or Human Machine Interface, between you and the PLC. The panel is composed of an LCD screen and a customizable keypad. The LCD screen displays messages to the operator. You assign functions to the keys when you write your software program.
Inputs
Inputs receive signals from external devices such as switches, push buttons and variable voltage signals from analog devices. The inputs convert the voltage to signals that the PLC can process.
Outputs
Outputs send signals from the PLC to external devices such as lights or contactor coils.
Outputs convert the PLC program results into signals that these external devices can process.
CPU
The Central Processing Unit is the brain of the PLC. It executes the control program.
How PLCs Work
The figure below shows the PLC cycle. This cycle is called a scan. The scan cycle is performed continuously.

3
Sends data to outputs
Figure 12. PLC Scan
First, the input data is read at the beginning of each scan. Examples of input data are data from the PLC’s physical inputs, and data that are entered via the PLC’s keypad.
Next, the program is executed. The user creates the PLC control program. The program is composed of instructions that are written in the Ladder language, and is written using the
PLC’s proprietary software. All program instructions are executed in each scan cycle.
Last, the outputs are updated with the new data.
The sample net shown below causes an alarm, connected to output #1, to actuate whenever a gate, connected to input #1, opens.
The command means that the status of the gate is checked at the beginning of each scan. When the gate is open, the value in the operand is 1 or on. When the gate is closed, the value in the operand is 0 or off.
The command controls the alarm. When the value in contact 1 is found to be 1, the alarm is switched on. When the value is 0, the alarm is off.
30
i4 Automation Ltd - 01480 395256
Appendix B: Program Cloner
The Program Cloner Add-on Module is available by separate order as MJ20-MEM1. The
Cloner enables you to copy applications and data between Jazz
™ OPLCs™. You plug the
Cloner into the jack of a Jazz OPLC and then use Information Mode to export the complete application from the source into the Cloner. You can choose to:
Export a complete application
This includes the OPLC’s OS, the Ladder program, the HMI application, and operand values MB, MI, and Timer Preset into the Cloner.
Export a partial application
- A complete application that does not include the operand values.
- Operand values only.
Once the Cloner contains an application or data, you can plug the Cloner into a Jazz OPLC and then use Information Mode to import it from the Cloner into the OPLC. This process overwrites the data in the destination OPLC.
Note that the source and destination OPLCs must be of the same model, except in the case of a partial application which exports only operand values.
DIP Switch
There are two switches on the Cloner, shown in Figure 13.
Switch 1: - ON enables you to both read from and write to the Cloner.
- OFF enables you to apply write protection. This enables read-only.
Switch 2: This switch is for factory use only. It is set in the ON position. Do not move it.
