Simulator Setup:
Together with the touchpanel, the simulator is used to operate the plant. It contains the following
components:
• 14 switches, whereby the switch "S_OperationOFF" (I 0.1) is an NC contact
• 10 LEDs
• Potentiometers for specifying or simulating analog input signals
• Voltmeter for displaying the voltage set on the potentiometer

Addressing
For the addressing shown in the picture, the relevant address settings must be made in the
device configuration.

The Training Area as Plant with Distribution Conveyor and Touchpanel

The distribution conveyor is used to transport parts and can be operated in two different operating
modes:
• When "P_Operation" (Q4.0) is switched off...
the conveyor motor can be jogged to the right and left. For now, the simulator switches are to be
used for this, later, the associated buttons on the touchpanel.

• When "P_Operation" (Q4.0) is switched on...

parts are transported on the conveyor model from Bay 1 or 2 until they are through the light
barrier. If a transport sequence takes longer than 6 seconds, the conveyor motor is automatically
switched off and the fault is displayed on the simulator as well as on the touchpanel. Only after
the fault is acknowledged with the simulator switch or on the touchpanel, can a new transport
sequence be started.
All parts that pass the light barrier when "P_Operation" is switched on are counted. When the
ACTUAL number of transported parts reaches the SETPOINT quantity (which can be preset on
the touchpanel) it is indicated on the conveyor model LED of the light barrier bay. Only after the
message is acknowledged with the associated bay pushbutton, can a new transport sequence be
started.
The indicator lights at Bays 1 and 2 show continuous light when a new part can be placed on the
conveyor (conveyor motor is stopped and both proximity sensors are free); 1Hz flashing light at
the Bay at which a part is detected by the associated proximity sensor, however, only as long as
the conveyor has not yet been started (if parts are placed on the conveyor at both proximity
sensors, no indicator lights are to light up); 2Hz flashing light as long as the conveyor motor is
running.
The indicator light at the Light Barrier Bay shows 2Hz flashing light as long as the conveyor motor
is running and continuous light when the SETPOINT quantity has been reached.
