 Experiment No. 02
Aim: To perform Set / Reset operation: one push button for ON and other push button for OFF
operation.

SET RESET COMMAND DELTA PLC - YouTube Refer to the video link for practice.

OBJECTIVES:

1) To understand SET/RESET function of PLC

2)To understand basic ladder diagram for set reset and I/p- O/P devices

3) To Build Ladder diagram and implement the logic using WPLsoftware

Theory: SET And RESET operation

Another function that is often available is the ability to set and reset an internal relay. These
instruction causes the relay to self-hold, that is, latch. It then remains in that condition until the
reset instruction is received. The term flip-flop is often used. Figure shows the IEC 1131-3 standards
for such coils. The SET coil is switched on when power is supplied to it and remains set until it is
RESET. The RESET coil is reset to the off state when power is supplied to it and remains off until it is
SET.
Figure shows an example of a ladder diagram involving such a function. Activation of the first input,
X400, causes the output Y430 to be turned on and set, that is, latched. Thus, if the first input is
turned off, the output remains on. Activation of the second input, X401, causes the output Y430 to
be reset, that is, turned off and latched off. Thus, the output Y430 is on for the time between X400
being momentarily switched on and X401 being momentarily switched on.

Between the two rungs indicated for the set and reset operations, there could be other rungs for
other activities to be carried out, with the set rung switching on an output at the beginning of the
sequence and off at the end. The programming instructions for the ladder rungs in the program for
Figure are:

LDX400 SY430 Other program rungs are: LDX401 RY430

With an Allen-Bradley PLC, the terms latch and unlatch are used. Figure shows the ladder
diagram.
Questions:
1. What is SET/RESET function in PLC? What is practical application of the function?
2. Write a PLC ladder logic for SET/RESET
3. Write a PLC ladder logic for LATCH / UNLATCH and implement in RS Logix
software.
