PLC Programming Example
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…
PLC AVE (Average) Instruction Example
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…
PLC FIFO Instructure Usage (FFL)
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,…
