Productivity 1000 Series PLC - Automation Direct - Productivity 1000 Series PLC Establishing Communication

We will connect the Productivity 1000 Series PLC to our computer running the Productivity Suite Software. A micro-USB and an Ethernet (RJ45) communication link will be established to our programmable logic controller. The latest version of the Productivity Suite is 3.1.0.11. This is the programming software we will use to implement our control logic. Let’s get started. More information can be obtained at our website. This includes all of the links mentioned in this video. https://accautomation.ca/productivity-1000-series-plc-establishing-communication Previously in this Productivity 1000 Series PLC, we looked at the following: System Hardware https://accautomation.ca/productivity-1000-series-plc-system-hardware System Hardware Video https://youtu.be/epzgojtd57U Installing the Software https://accautomation.ca/productivity-1000-series-plc-installing-the-software Installing the Software Video https://youtu.be/gh5X7_EeCdg There are several reasons why we are using the Productivity 1000 Series Controller. Here are just a few. - 50MB user memory - Can handle very complex applications easily. - 4 built-in communication ports – Easy connectivity to your network. - Data logging up to 32 GB on a microSD card - Add up to 8 IP modules to communicate to your field sensors. This will give you a total of 128 discrete IO points or 32 analog IO channels. - Free Software and 30 days of free training with every CPU from Automation Direct. - Interactive PLC Configuration Tool - Tag Names - Auto-discovery IO – Physical I/O tags will be generated based on each module’s position in the base. - I/O Modules have QR codes under the wiring cover. This can be scanned so you can have the latest specifications/wiring diagrams for the module. - Limitless PID – Autotuning – Individual or Cascade Mode - etc - Web Server and Mobile Access - Advanced Software instruction set The Productivity 1000 series of programmable logic controllers currently has all of these features built into the P1-540 CPU. This CPU (Central Processing Unit) is also known as MPU (Multi-Processing Units) because of the communication capabilities. https://www.accautomation.ca
