Program Plan Intro
Programmable Logic Controller (PLC):
- PLC is a specialized computer used in industrial segments to control machines and process.
- PLC is program that consists of a set of instructions which resembles the controlling functions needed to perform specific tasks.
- The function of PLC is similar to that of a relay and hence, in an industrial segment a relay is greatly replaced by a suitable PLC.
- When compared to general Personal Computer (PC), a PLC is available in small and tiny sizes.
- The basic architecture of a PLC consists of an input-output interface module and a small Central Processing Unit (CPU) that runs by controlling
programming language.
Given:
The following are the assumptions regarding the hardwired control circuit.
- A Normally Closed (NC) pushbutton PB1 is used.
- Pushbuttons PB2 and PB3 are wired using one set of Normally Open (NO) contacts.
- The Overload (OL) contact is hardwired.

Create a PLC ladder logic diagram for an alarm that turns on when either A counts up to 10, or B counts down to 7.
Write a Ladder Logic PLC program for each of the following scenarios. Label all contacts and coils in the PLC program.
Scenario 1
Turn on a light when either one of two switches (I1, I2) is toggled on (construct an OR Gate). Turn on a second light when both switches (Same inputs I1, I2) are toggled on (construct an AND Gate). Turn on a third light when both switches (Same inputs I1, I2) are toggled off (construct a NOR Gate). Turn on a fourth light when either switch (Same inputs I1, I2) is toggled off (construct a NAND Gate). Print a copy of the program showing the construction of the four gate configurations. Also, submit a truth table for the four input configurations.
Then modify your program so, only one light turns on at a time as you toggle the four truth table states.
Scenario 2
Construct a seal-in circuit using a stop-and-start pushbutton and an internal coil to seal in. Turn on a light for 10 seconds when the start button is pushed then turn it off automatically or…
