What program i can use for S7200 which is compatable with windows 7 or 10
Dear All,
I have an old S7200 PLC + a usb cable for It. Now I have the need to use it for a small project + brushing up my knowledge on ladder and so on. The Microwin I had does not work on windows 7 and windows 10. Which program I can use to be compatible with widows 7 or 10 and will still be able to communicate with Siemens S7200
Please be kind as I am not an expert on PLC's
SBC PCD4 manuals
Hello,
I've been lookin' for (pdf) manuals for some SBC PCD4 modules. Unfortunately, these modules aren't officialy supported by the manufacturer anymore, so the manuals are to my best knowledge almost impossible to find.
Therefore, I would like to ask, whether anyone of you have (or know the requisite links for) PCD4.B9xx, PCD4.N2xx and PCD.M1xx manuals.
Thank you and best regards
Fuses and PLC Question
Hello,
In my facility, I have three PLC input cards connected next to each other (SLC 500 1746-ia16) controlling several field devices. On each input (16 total) of the cards, I wired a 100ma fuse to protect the inputs from blowing. After several months of the cards working, numerous inputs on each card blew; however, their fuses did not blow. I examined the inputs on each card and saw that the resistor got blown. Could it be possible for it to be a voltage issue? Some of the field devices are powered by different 120v sources. Do you guys have any suggestions on what the problem is?
Regards,
PLC, contactor and wiring migrate/upgrading advice
Hi,

Omron Syswin
Hi,
I'm working on a machine that has an Omron CPM 1A PLC in it.
I have the *.SWP file (program for this machine).
I have the programming cable.
I have SYSWIN 3.0. It will not install on any of my computers.
Will SYSWIN 3.4 run on a Windows 7 64 bit system?
Will the *.SWP program work with SYSWIN 3.4?
Does anyone know where I can get a copy of the Omron software I need?

Programming LOGO 8
Thought this was shareworthy, as there is no information broadcast from Siemens about it, I had to figure out with the help of a guy in Germany...
If you (use Siemens LOGO, I'm sure there's at least 1 or 2 people besides me) and got the latest 0BA8, it had an unannounced firmware upgrade I think towards the end of 2016.
Using the Logosoft Comfort software, you need to upgrade to version 8.1.0. This is usually done quickly and easily through HELP-Update Center from the menu along top of screen.
You must open the software/program "as an administrator" or it won't work.
So once you've got 8.1 installed and running, you have to check the FW version of your 0BA8:
-Diagnostics
-Software
-FW version
If it's 1.08.03, you have to select the PLC Type (bottom right of LSC screen) "LOGO!8.FS4"
If it's 1.01.01, you need to select type "0BA8.Standard"
I had our guys send a PLC back thinking it was bad because it wouldn't take a program, when the new one came in and had the same problem, I dug a little deeper and discovered this. Hope it helps someone!
Operating & Control Philosophies
Hello
I am head over heals in the design of a water treatment plant (Conceptual design), Once the P&ID is approved, which it is, I am finding a hard time elaborating a document describing the P&ID, for those who doesn't understand it, as well as document to explain how the Instruments actually works and respond one to the other. I am new to this, So if you could help in any way, I will be really grateful.
I don't get ladder logic.
I have done some machine language programming and some of the other higher
level programming. I think I have a good understanding of how computers work. Does a
ladder logic symbol relate to a specific routine in the PLC?
I have a PLC I am trying to learn to programm and ladder logic is not making a lot
of sense. I hope some one here can point me in a direction of a good tutorial, a book
or a web site.
