PLC Fiddle Flasher Challenge Solution - Compare

We will now look at the plc fiddle flasher challenge solution using the compare instruction. Just about every program usually has some data comparison instruction. This is the ability to compare information from one area of the controller to another and act on results. The output of this comparison conditions the logical continuity of a rung. PLC Fiddle is a free online browser simulator and has the following compare contact instructions. (if Equal contact) (if Not Equal contact) (if Greater Than contact) (if Greater Than or Equal contact) (if Less Than contact) (if Less Than or Equal contact) We will be looking at these instructions along with some programming challenges. As a system integrator, this ability can prove very useful to you in the field when commissioning your automation system. We will look at these comparison instructions and show the parameters required to program them. Our compare challenges will help you gain a good understanding of how we can use compare in the PLC. Trying these challenges with PLC Fiddle is fun and will help you with PLC programming. Let’s get started. More information can be obtained on our website. This includes all of the challenge links for all of the compare ladder logic. http://accautomation.ca/plc-fiddle-compare-challenge Flasher Challenge https://www.plcfiddle.com/challenge/bc3e4866-68d4-4544-b2fa-897942e2e26c Motor Starter Service Stop Challenge https://www.plcfiddle.com/challenge/5e177293-0184-4888-b532-7f0a16ade044 Solution https://youtu.be/p8pcKY4_CJI Flasher Challenge https://www.plcfiddle.com/challenge/bc3e4866-68d4-4544-b2fa-897942e2e26c Solution https://youtu.be/i3MZ03018lM Simple Traffic Light Challenge https://www.plcfiddle.com/challenge/232ad708-e4db-4e0c-bfc7-2353104ba249 Solution https://youtu.be/fc2IkKwOccU PLC Fiddle is an ideal way in understanding PLC concepts for industrial automation. All of the basic PLC instructions that come with most plc units have been incorporated in this virtual PLC software. PLC Fiddle is helpful to you in learning and understanding PLC concepts. Using the simulator you can test your circuits by monitoring and testing all of the input condition.
