Productivity 1000 Series PLC Timer Instructions

Just about every programmable logic controller (PLC) program will include timer instruction. The Productivity 1000 Series PLC has several different timer instructions for your program. We discussed the timed coil (TMC) and flasher coil (FLS) last time as part of the contacts and coil discussion. (Contact and Coil Instructions – Video)
We will now look at using the Simple Timer (STMR) and the Timer (TMR) instructions in the productivity suite software. Let’s get started.

More information can be obtained on our website. This includes all of the links mentioned in this video.

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.
