P-SIM 2000 Industrial Applications Software

      The Industrial Applications Software consists of four animated realtime simulations specifically selected for their suitability to demonstrate the basic concepts of Programmable Controller operation and programming. The P-SIM 2000 Student Lab Manual leads the student through the creation, and troubleshooting of Ladder Logic Programming.

Application #1: I/O and DataTable Simulator

      The Input/Output Simulator includes 8 operable switches (inputs) and 8 operable lights (outputs). Two Data Table Viewing Windows are supplied which allows the student to monitor in realtime the status of the I/O bits in the PLC's Data Table along with the accumulator and preset values of all counters and timers. Data may be displayed in either binary, hex or decimal format.

Application #2: Automated Filling System

      The Automated Filling System consists of an operable conveyor with position sensing, product hopper with valved discharge, level sensing and a PLC Data Table Viewing Window. As the Lab Manual leads students in developing their ladder logic programs, errors such as opening the hopper without a container in position will result in a visual display of product overflow and eventual plant shutdown.

Application #3: The Intersection Traffic Light Control System

      The Intersection Traffic Light Control System consists of an intersection with 4 traffic lights and automobiles. This is an ideal lab for demonstrating the use and operation of cascading PLC timer instructions and word comparison instructions. The student lab manual leads the student through increasingly more difficult exercises using these instructions. Two Data Table Viewing Windows are available for monitoring PLC time and data status. Errors in timer settings and control system design will result in improper light control and traffic flow.

Application #4: Batch Mixing Control System

      The Batch Mixing System consists of a tank with a mixer. Two pump control fill lines are equipped with flow meters, while a single pumped discharge line with flow meter is available. Temperature of product is monitored and can be raised via the valved gas operated burner. Product temperature responds accurately to fill cooling by using a specific heat calculation. Errors in settings of temperature, level sensing devices, etc. will result in overheating, visual product overflow, and eventual plant shutdown.
