Features: This book is based on the widely used OMRON high-performance small computer CPM1A, systematically elaborating on the composition, working principles, and instruction system of Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs), and providing a detailed explanation of the design methods for PLC control systems. It introduces the three PLC networks currently promoted by OMRON: ControllerLink, CompoBus/D, and Ethernet, and discusses in detail the communication units, network configurations, network functions, connection of communication ports, communication protocols, and related programming for each. It also provides a relatively detailed introduction to the functions and usage methods of OMRON's microprogrammable terminal MPT002 and the computer-aided programming software CX-P. The content of this book is novel, the language is easy to understand, and theory is closely linked to practice. To facilitate teaching and self-study, each chapter is equipped with a certain number of exercises, and a richly informative experimental guide has been compiled. This book can serve as a textbook for universities and colleges in automation, electrical technology, mechatronics, and other related fields, or as a reference book for continuing education of engineering technicians or a training textbook for PLCs.
