Features: This book summarizes the basic principles and structure of programmable controllers (PLC), provides a detailed introduction to the hardware and software structure of Siemens S7-200 PLC and the use of its programming software, and elaborates on the hardware and software structure features and programming instructions of S7-300 PLC. On this basis, it introduces the design methods and applications of fieldbus and network control systems based on Siemens PLC. The content of the book is divided into four levels:
Basic Level – Fundamental knowledge of PLCs in general;
Specialized Level – Hardware and software structure of Siemens S7-200 and S7-300 PLCs and their programming software;
System Level – Fieldbus and network control systems based on Siemens PLC;
Application Level – Examples of single-machine PLC control systems and network control system design and application.
The book is well-structured, covering both breadth and depth with a clear focus, and includes exercises to cater to readers of different levels. It can serve as a textbook for undergraduate and graduate students in electrical control, industrial automation, mechatronics, measurement and control technology and instruments, and can also be used as a reference for technical workers and engineers in related fields.
