An industrial PLCs system is used for the development of the controls of machinery. This paper describes the PLCs systems in terms of their architecture, their interface to the process hardware, the functionality and the application development facilities they provide. Some attention is also paid to the industrial standards to which they abide their planned evolution as well as the potential benefits of their use. Ladder Logic is a graphical programming language, initially programmed with simple contacts that simulates the opening and closing of relays. Ladder Logic programming has been expanded to include functions such as Counters, Timers, shift Registers and math operations. Ladder logic is a method of drawing electrical logic schematics. It is now a graphical language very popular for programming Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs). It was originally invented to describe logic made from relays. The name is based on the observation that programs in this language resemble ladders, with two vertical "rails" and a series of horizontal "rungs" between them.
This document discusses jump instructions in PLC ladder logic. Jump instructions allow a PLC program to break its normal sequential execution and move to another part of the program. The key points covered are:
- Jump instructions work with label instructions to redirect program flow. The jump instruction moves execution to the rung with a matching label number.
- Jumps can move execution forward or backward within a program. Multiple jumps can target the same label. Jumps can also be nested within other jumps.
- Advantages of jumps include allowing a PLC to run multiple programs, jumping sections during faults to reduce downtime, and improving scan time performance.
- An example is provided demonstrating a parking lot control system

Identify elements associated with the preparation of a programmable logic controller program.
Before starting the development of a programmable logic controller program, there are a number
of important steps which shall be taken into consideration e.g. selection of PLC based on
input/output, etc...identify some other important steps and elements.
Solution
A programmable logic controller, PLC, or programmable controller is a digital computer used
for automation of typically industrialelectromechanical processes, such as control of machinery
on factory assembly lines, amusement rides, or light fixtures. PLCs are used in many machines,
in many industries. PLCs are designed for multiple arrangements of digital and analog inputs and
outputs, extended temperature ranges, immunity to electrical noise, and resistance to vibration
and impact. Programs to control machine operation are typically stored in battery-backed-up or
non-volatile memory. A PLC is an example of a \"hard\" real-time system since output results
must be produced in response to input conditions within a limited time, otherwise unintended
operation will result.
Before the PLC, control, sequencing, and safety interlock logic for manufacturing automobiles
was mainly composed of relays, cam timers,drum sequencers, and dedicated closed-loop
controllers. Since these could number in the hundreds or even thousands, the process for
updating such facilities for the yearly model change-over was very time consuming and
expensive, as electricians needed to individually rewire the relays to change their operational
characteristics.
Digital computers, being general-purpose programmable devices, were soon applied to control of
industrial processes. Early computers required specialist programmers, and stringent operating
environmental control for temperature, cleanliness, and power quality. Using a general-purpose
computer for process control required protecting the computer from the plant floor conditions.
An industrial control computer would have several attributes: it would tolerate the shop-floor
environment, it would support discrete (bit-form) input and output in an easily extensible
manner, it would not require years of training to use, and it would permit its operation to be
monitored. The response time of any computer system must be fast enough to be useful for
control; the required speed varying according to the nature of the process.[1] Since many
industrial processes have timescales easily addressed by millisecond response times, modern
(fast, small, reliable) electronics greatly facilitate building reliable controllers, especially because
performance can be traded off for reliability.
In 1968 GM Hydra-Matic (the automatic transmission division of General Motors) issued a
request for proposals for an electronic replacement for hard-wired relay systems based on a white
paper written by engineer Edward R. Clark. The winning proposal came from Bedford
Associates of Bedford, Massachusetts. T.

Advanced control scheme of doubly fed induction generator for wind turbine us...IJECEIAES
This paper describes a speed control device for generating electrical energy on an electricity network based on the doubly fed induction generator (DFIG) used for wind power conversion systems. At first, a double-fed induction generator model was constructed. A control law is formulated to govern the flow of energy between the stator of a DFIG and the energy network using three types of controllers: proportional integral (PI), sliding mode controller (SMC) and second order sliding mode controller (SOSMC). Their different results in terms of power reference tracking, reaction to unexpected speed fluctuations, sensitivity to perturbations, and resilience against machine parameter alterations are compared. MATLAB/Simulink was used to conduct the simulations for the preceding study. Multiple simulations have shown very satisfying results, and the investigations demonstrate the efficacy and power-enhancing capabilities of the suggested control system.

Embedded machine learning-based road conditions and driving behavior monitoringIJECEIAES
Car accident rates have increased in recent years, resulting in losses in human lives, properties, and other financial costs. An embedded machine learning-based system is developed to address this critical issue. The system can monitor road conditions, detect driving patterns, and identify aggressive driving behaviors. The system is based on neural networks trained on a comprehensive dataset of driving events, driving styles, and road conditions. The system effectively detects potential risks and helps mitigate the frequency and impact of accidents. The primary goal is to ensure the safety of drivers and vehicles. Collecting data involved gathering information on three key road events: normal street and normal drive, speed bumps, circular yellow speed bumps, and three aggressive driving actions: sudden start, sudden stop, and sudden entry. The gathered data is processed and analyzed using a machine learning system designed for limited power and memory devices. The developed system resulted in 91.9% accuracy, 93.6% precision, and 92% recall. The achieved inference time on an Arduino Nano 33 BLE Sense with a 32-bit CPU running at 64 MHz is 34 ms and requires 2.6 kB peak RAM and 139.9 kB program flash memory, making it suitable for resource-constrained embedded systems.

Electric vehicle and photovoltaic advanced roles in enhancing the financial p...IJECEIAES
Climate change's impact on the planet forced the United Nations and governments to promote green energies and electric transportation. The deployments of photovoltaic (PV) and electric vehicle (EV) systems gained stronger momentum due to their numerous advantages over fossil fuel types. The advantages go beyond sustainability to reach financial support and stability. The work in this paper introduces the hybrid system between PV and EV to support industrial and commercial plants. This paper covers the theoretical framework of the proposed hybrid system including the required equation to complete the cost analysis when PV and EV are present. In addition, the proposed design diagram which sets the priorities and requirements of the system is presented. The proposed approach allows setup to advance their power stability, especially during power outages. The presented information supports researchers and plant owners to complete the necessary analysis while promoting the deployment of clean energy. The result of a case study that represents a dairy milk farmer supports the theoretical works and highlights its advanced benefits to existing plants. The short return on investment of the proposed approach supports the paper's novelty approach for the sustainable electrical system. In addition, the proposed system allows for an isolated power setup without the need for a transmission line which enhances the safety of the electrical network
2. A programmable logic controller (PLC) is an
industrial digital computer which has been
adapted for the control of manufacturing
processes, such as assembly lines, robotic devices,
or any activity that requires high reliability and
process fault diagnosis.
3. Before PLC
Before the days of PLC the only way to control machinery
was through the use of relays. Relays work by utilizing a
coil that, when energized, creates a magnetic force to
effectively pull a switch to the ON or OFF position. When
the relay is de-energized, the switch releases and returns
the device to its standard ON or OFF position.
For example, if I wanted to control a motor ON or OFF, I
could attach a relay between the power source and the
motor. Then I could control when the motor is getting
power by either energizing or de-energizing the relay. This
type of relay is known as a power relay. There could be
several motors in one factory that need to be controlled, so
one add lots of power relays. So the factories started with a
mass electrical cabinets full of power relays.
Also, to switch the coils in the power relays ON and OFF we
need to add more relays. These relays are known as control
relays.
4. Problem with Relays
All the relays had to be hardwired in a very
specific order for the machine to work
properly, and if one relay would have an
issue, the system as a whole would not work.
Troubleshooting would take hours, and
because coils would fail and contacts would
wear out, there was need for lots of
troubleshooting.
These machines had to follow a strict
maintenance schedule and they took up a lot
of space.
5. Birth of PLC and Evolution
The engineers at General Motors were struggling with
same every day. Fortunately, at that time, the concept of
computer control had started to make its way into
conversations as General Motors. They identify the
following requirements for computer control to replace
hardwired panels.
A solid-state system that was flexible like a computer
but priced like kind relay logic system.
Easily maintained and programmed
It had to work in an industrial harsh environment with
all its dirt, moisture, electromagnetism and vibration.
It had to be modular in form to allow for easy
exchange of components and expandability.
6. Birth of PLC and Evolution
The first PLCs had the ability to work with input
and output signals, relay coil/contact internal
logic, timers and counters.
Timers and counters made use of word size
internal registers. The PLC continued to evolve
with the addition of one-shots, analog input and
output signals, enhanced timers and counters,
floating point math, drum sequencers and
mathematic functions.
Having built-in PID (Proportional-Integral-
Derivative) functionality was a huge advantage
for PLCs being used in the process industry.
Common sets of instructions evolved into fill-in-
the-blank data boxes that have made
programming more efficient.
7. Birth of PLC and Evolution
The ability to use meaningful Tag Names in place
of non-descriptive labels has allowed the end
user to more clearly define their application, and
the ability to import/export the Tag Names to
other devices eliminates errors that result when
entering information into each device by hand.
The first programming devices were dedicated,
but unfortunately the size of suitcases.
Later, handheld programming devices came into
the picture, but soon were replaced with
proprietary programming software running on a
personal computer.
AutomationDirect’s DirectSOFT, developed by
Host Engineering, was the first Windows-based
PLC programming software package.
8. Birth of PLC and Evolution
Having a PC communicating with a PLC provided the
ability to not only program, but also allowed easier
testing and troubleshooting.
Communications started with the MODBUS protocol
using RS-232 serial communications.
The addition of various automation protocols
communicating over RS-485, DeviceNet, Profibus,
and other serial communication architectures have
followed.
The use of serial communications and the various
PLC protocols also allowed PLCs to be networked
with other PLCs, motor drives, and human to
machine interfaces (HMI).
Most recently EtherNet and protocols such
as EtherNet/IP (for Industrial Protocol) have gained
tremendous popularity.
9. PLC Hardwares
Power supply
Processing unit (CPU)
Memory
Input/ Output Modules
Programing device
10. Power Supply
The Power Supply is a module located in the
PLC system module rack. The DC power
(voltage and current) it provides power the
other modules in the rack, such as the CPU,
Co-processor Modules, and I/O Modules.
11. Processing unit (CPU)
The function of the CPU is to store and run the PLC
software programs. It also interfaces with the Co-
Processor Modules, the I/O Modules, the peripheral
device, and runs diagnostics. It is essentially the "brains"
of the PLC.
The items shown inside the CPU and their basic
functions are as follows:
The microprocessor codes, decodes, and computes
data.
The memory (ROM, PROM/EEPROM/UVPROM, and
RAM) stores both the control program and the data
from the field devices.
The I/O Interface adapter connects the Co-Processor
Modules, the I/O Modules and the Peripheral Device
to the CPU.
12. Memory
System (ROM) give permanent storage for the
operating system and the fixed data used by the
CPU.
RAM for data, this is where information is stored
on the status of input and output devices and the
values of timers and counters and other internal
devices.
EPROM for ROM’s that can be programmed and
then the program made permanent.
13. Input/ Output Modules
Input modules provide the electrical connection
between field devices (pushbuttons, limit switches,
photoeyes) and internal process of the PLC.
They differ in voltages and types of signals produced
such as ON, OFF or a variable voltage.
Output modules are the devices that the PLC uses to
send changes out to the field.
These are the actuator the PLC can change to adjust or
control the process - motors, lights, relays, pumps, etc.
14. Programming Device
The programming device is to enter the required
program into the memory of the processor.
The program is developed in the programming device
and then transferred to the memory unit of the PLC.
15. PLC Software
It is a software technology designed to turn an
embedded computer into a fully functional and
programmable logic controller, also known as a
PLC.
It combines PLCs’ discrete, PID and analog I/O
control with high performing computer
networking, data handling, and computational
capabilities.
As such, software PLCs offer dependable
operation, exceptionally fast and deterministic
program scan durations, generate instructions
set, clear data table memory, unlimited user
programs, and also an open platform that allows
users to connect to a wide range of I/O systems
and networks among other devices.
16. PLC Language
IEC 61131-3 is the international standard for programmable controller programming
languages. The following is a list of programming languages specified by this
standard:
Ladder diagram (LD)
Sequential Function Charts (SFC)
Function Block Diagram (FBD)
Structured Text (ST)
Instruction List (IL)
17. Ladder Diagram (LD)
Ladder logic is the main programming method
used for PLC's. Ladder logic has been developed
to mimic relay logic.
The first PLC was programmed with a technique
that was based on relay logic wiring schematics.
This eliminated the need to teach the electricians,
technicians and engineers how to program - so
this programming method has stuck and it is the
most common technique for programming in
today's PLC.
18. Sequential Function Charts (SFC)
SFC was developed to accommodate the
programming of more advanced systems. These
are similar to flowcharts, but much more
powerful.
This method is much different from flowcharts
because it does not have to follow a single path
through the flowchart.
19. Function Block Diagram (FBD)
FBD is another graphical programming language.
The main concept is the data flow that start from
inputs and passes in block(s) and generate the
output.
20. Structured Text (ST)
Programming has been developed as a more modern
programming language. It is quite similar to languages
such as BASIC and Pascal.
Structured Text (ST) is a high level textual language that
is a Pascal like language. It is very flexible and intuitive
for writing control algorithms.
21. Instruction List (IL)
ILs are not a graphical programming language.
Instead, they most resemble assembly language
programming.
As the name implies, a program is a series of
instructions, listed in much the same way as an
assembly program.
22. Advantages
Small physical size & shorter project time.
Cost effective for controlling complex system.
Reliability.
Less and simple wiring.
Faster response.
Remote control capability.
More flexibility.
Ease of maintenance / troubleshooting
23. Disadvantages
Fixed circuit operation.
PLCs manufacturers offer only closed loop
architecture.
PLCs are propitiatory, which means software and
parts one manufacturer can’t be easily used in
combination with part of another manufacturer.
Number of optional modules must be added to
maximize flexibility and performance.
