Using the touchscreen TP270 as the upper computer and the S7-200 PLC as the lower computer, it briefly explains the installation and programming of the TP270's configuration software ProTool, the working principles of the PLC, basic instructions, the installation, programming, and debugging of the PLC's programming software STEP7-Micro／WIN32, as well as the online debugging of the upper and lower computers. The book employs an example-based approach, using numerous diagrams to introduce the joint application of touchscreens and PLCs in a step-by-step manner, solving practical engineering problems. This book can serve as an introductory reading for engineers self-studying touchscreen configuration and PLC programming, and can also be used as a reference for students in automation, computer science, and mechatronics programs at universities and vocational colleges. Additionally, it can be used as a training textbook for vocational training schools and continuing education for working professionals.
