Features: This book is one of the series "Modern Industrial Automation Technology Applications." Programmable controllers (PCs) are a new type of general-purpose automatic control devices specifically designed for industrial control, integrating traditional relay contactor control technology, computer technology, and communication technology. Their high reliability, strong environmental adaptability, and ease of use have made them widely popular among automation field technicians. Learning and mastering programmable controller technology has become an urgent task for industrial automation technicians and students in related majors at universities and colleges. This book, starting from practical applications and based on application system design, systematically introduces the working principles, basic instructions, programming methods, step instructions, application instructions, and special function unit modules of programmable controllers. It also elaborates on the design process of typical control systems and their applications in engineering examples, incorporating research achievements. Additionally, the book covers the application of bus technologies such as CC-Link. This book can serve as a reference for engineering technicians engaged in programmable controller application development in the field of automatic control. It can also be used as a teaching material for students in electrical engineering, mechatronics, automation, and related majors at various schools.
