I. ANSWER THE FOLLOWING QUESTIONS

A.

1. How many rungs are there in this program? (2 pts.)

- 4 Rungs
2. When the start button is pressed. Explain what will happen to the program? (2 pts.)
- The inlet and outlet valve will be energized
3. When the input %I0.2 (Low Level Sensor) is energized, what will happen to Rung 1? (2 pts.)
- Everything on rung 1 remained unaffected by the low-level sensor; however, the inlet valve was still operating, and
the heater on rung 2 was turned off.
4. Explain the use of the comparison block function in the program. (4 pts.)
- The purpose is to know the program has to turn on or off the heater because the sensor detects the temperature
on the comparison block if the temperature is lower or higher the 50.
5. Explain the function of the entire program. (5 pts.)
- The program's purpose is to simply heat liquid using a heater and sensors. When you hit the start button, it will
ignite rung 1 (the coil) and LSL as soon as the empty tank is detected. It will activate when the LSL is detected. When
the temperature reaches more than 50 degrees, the sensor activates the outlet valve and begins draining until LSL is
detected, at which point the process is restarted.

B.

1. How many rungs are there in this program? (2 pts.)

- 9 Rungs
2. When the start button is pressed. Explain what will happen to Rung 1 and Rung 2? (2 pts.)
- After pressing the start button and started energizing %I0.0 or the On Button, rung 1 will be the timer of the
red light in rung 2. While rung 2 will be lighted for 20 seconds.

3. When the start button is pressed. Explain what will happen to Rung 5 and Rung 6? (2 pts.)
- After Pressing the start button and started energizing %I0.0 in rung 0 and waited for 40 seconds, rung 5 will
start the timer and rung 6 or the green light will be lighted for 20 seconds.
4. What is the difference with the TON timer function with TOFF timer function? (4 pts.)
- Timer on Delay TON is the non-retentive instruction for on-delay timers. It is used to provide signals that
change state a time delay after the TON block is energized. TOF is the non-retentive instruction for off-delay
timers.
5. Explain the function of the entire program. (5 pts.)
- After pressing or energizing rung 0 or &I0.0, rung 1 will start the timer and rung 2 or the red light will be
lighted for 20 seconds. After 20 seconds, rung 3 will start timer and rung 4 or the yellow light will be lighter for
20 seconds. After 20 seconds, rung 5 will start the timer and rung 6 or the green light will be lighter for 20
seconds. After 20 seconds, rung 7 and 8 will be lighted and will reset the whole program.

C.

1. How many rungs are there in this program? (2 pts.)

- 4 rungs
2. What happens in Rung 2 when in LEQ Comparison Block A is greater than B? (2 pts.)
- After detecting that Block A is greater than Block B, the output in rung 2 will be lighted up or
energized.
3. What happens in Rung 2 when in LEQ Comparison Block B is greater than A? (2 pts.)
- The comparison block will detect that Block B is greater than Block A and will not lighted up.
4. Explain the use of the comparison block function in the program. (4 pts.)
- The comparison block determines the value of the lamps in the program. For example, rung 2 will be
energized only if the value of A is greater than B or vice versa. Some examples are when A reaches the
same value of B then the output will be lighted. This only depends on what comparison or logic you will
encode to the program.
5. Explain the function of the entire program. (5 pts.)
- The main function of the program is to set an output that will be turned on with corresponding
address of Q0.1 when the variable A is not greater than id but equal to the 2 nd variable which is B. Also,
the program simulation aims to get another output with corresponding address of Q0.3 by having lower
value than the variable A but it must be equal to the variable B.
