We can use the “FOR DO” command structure to find the sought value in an array. In the example below, I will explain how to run the “FOR DO” command in the STL language that I have prepared for you and understand the index number of a number in the array or whether this number … Read more
We all know what the mean command means and what it does mathematically. The average command is generally used to average a series of variables. In general, we assign the data to an array every second so that it is not affected by instantaneous changes at the decision-making point according to variable values such as … Read more
In this topic, we will see how the FFL (Fifo Load) command works and we will examine the Fifo command. The FIFO command is a command used in arrays. As the name suggests, it works with First In First Out logic. Also because arrays are used as local databases in PLC. With the FIFO command, … Read more
Check for a Specific Fault In this article, we will learn how to clear fault on Allen Bradley PLCs. Which is the continuation of our previous article. We will examine the automatic cleaning of the fault types that we have determined specifically, and error notifications at prescan time. You can find our previous article at … Read more
If there are software or hardware errors in the PLC, you may not want to catch the error or stop your whole system due to the error. In these cases, you can use a fault routine to clear the fault and allow some part of your system to continue running. Failure routine runs the routines … Read more

We can very easily perform many operations such as creating an error routine with indirect addressing method in PLCs, recipe system, and methods of storing the data we have. What is indirect addressing, in a briefly understandable way; The process of selecting the elements of an array by an index number can be called indirect … Read more
