The inputs of these devices are grouped into 2 blocks of 4 I each. Different phases are only possible between, not within the blocks.

The inputs of these devices are nonisolated and therefore require the same reference potential (ground) as the power supply.

With 2-wire connections no correction of the impedance of the measurement line occurs. 3-wire connection suppresses this influence.

Analog Analog amplifier


Description of the function: The function reads the analog value of the signal at analog input Ax. This value is multiplied by the gain parameter. Then the offset parameter is added to the analog value, i.e. (Ax * gain) + offset = updated value Ax. Output AQ shows the updated value Ax.

Integrated functions

Analog PI controller
Description of the function: If the input A/M is set to 0, then the special function sets output AQ with the value that is set with parameter Mq. If the input A/M is set to 1, then automatic mode commences. As an integral sum the value Mq is adopted, the controller function begins the calculations of the formulas. The updated value PV is used within the formulas. Updated value PV = (PV * gain) + offset If the updated value PV = SP, then the function does not change the value of AQ. With a disturbance, AQ continues to increase / decrease until the updated value PV again corresponds to SP. The speed with which AQ changes depends on the parameters KC and TI. If the input PV exceeds the parameter Max, then the updated value PV is set to the value of Max. If the PV falls short of the parameter Min, then the updated value PV is set to the value of Min. If the input R is set to 1, then the AQ output is reset. As long as R is set, the input A/M is disabled. The sampling time is fixed at 500 ms.

Analog Ramp
Description of the function: At the analog output, this special function starts up one of two levels or offset. Here you can set how quickly the level should be reached. If the input En is set, then the function issues the value StSp + offset at output AQ for the first 100 ms. Then, depending on the connection of Sel, the function runs from value StSp + offset to either level 1 or level 2 at the acceleration set in Rate. If the input St is set, the function runs to the value StSp + offset at the acceleration set in Rate. Then the function issues the value StSp + offset at output AQ for 100 ms. Finally offset is issued at output AQ. If the input St is set, the function can only be restarted once the inputs St and En have been reset. If input Sel has been changed, depending on the connection of Sel, the function runs from level 1 to level 2 or the other way round. If the input En is reset, the function immediately issues offset at output AQ. The analog value at the output is recalculated every 100 ms.

Analog Analog MUX


Description of the function: This special function outputs one of four predefined analog values or 0 at the analog output. If input En is set, then the function issues one of 4 possible analog values V1 to V4 at output AQ, depending on the value of S1 and S2. If the input En is not set, then the function issues the analog value 0 at output AQ. All 4 analog values V1 to V4 can be parameterized as a reference to another analog function, so the analog values can be dynamically changed in runtime (e.g. via potentiometer at an analog input).

Analog Pulse Width Modulator (PWM)

Integrated functions

Description of the function: The PWM function modulates the analog input value Ax into a pulsed digital output signal. The pulse width is proportional to the analog value Ax. The function reads the value of the signal at the analog input Ax. This value is multiplied by the value of parameter A (gain). Parameter B (offset) is added to the product, as follows: (Ax * Gain) + Offset = Actual value Ax The function block calculates the proportion of the value Ax to the range. The block sets the digital output Q high for the same proportion of the PT (periodic time) parameter, and sets Q low for the remainder of the time period.

Analog Pulse Width Modulator (PWM)


Calculation rule : Q = 1, for Ax / (Max - Min) of time period PT Q = 0, for PT - [Ax / (Max - Min)] of time period PT
Note: Ax in this calculation refers to the actual value Ax as calculated using the Gain and Offset. Min and Max refer to the minimum and maximum values specifed for the range.

Integrated functions

Example 1:
Periodic time (PT) = 4 sec. Ax = 500 1) 500 / (1000-0) = 0,5 2) 4 sec. * 0,5 = 2 sec. Q = 2 sec. high , 2 sec. low

Example 2:
Periodic time (PT) = 10 sec. Ax = 300 1) 300 / (1000-0) = 0,3 2) 10 sec. * 0,3 = 3 sec. Q = 3 sec. high , 7 sec. low

Analog - Analog Math


Description of the function: The function combines four values and three operators to form an equation. The operator can be any one of the four standard operators: +,-,x,/ For each operator, you must set a unique priority of High ("H"), Medium ("M"), or Low ("L"). The high operation will be performed first, followed by the medium operation and the low operation. The operand values can reference another previously-defined function to provide the value. You can also configure the behavior of the function when the Enable parameter "En"=0. The function block can either retain its last value or be set to 0. The result is an internal analog value (-32768 - +32767). A result out of this range causes an overflow-error.

Step 1: Insert connectors (CO)


How many inputs and outputs are necessary to solve the task?

1.

Within the tree structure on the left side of the software you can choose quickly and clearly all necessary input and output blocks, markers or constants (high, low) and all basic and special functions and you can place them on the configuration interface.

LOGO! Soft Comfort V6.1

After having chosen an element the following cursor will appear on the configuration interface:

2.

Move the mouse to the desired position. Clicking on the left mouse button inserts the block.

Step 2: Insert basic functions (GF)


Which basic functions are necessary to solve the task?

LOGO! Soft Comfort V6.1

2. 1.

After placing both inputs I1 and I2 and the output Q1 on the interface a basic function (NOT) is necessary. As already learned in the first step you choose via the tree structure on the left the appropriate function and place it via a simple mouse click.

Step 3: Insert special functions (SF)


Which special functions are necessary to solve the task?

LOGO! Soft Comfort V6.1

2.

1.

As the last function element a special function (latching relay) is also necessary. As already learned in the previous steps you choose via the tree structure at the left the appropriate function and place it via simple mouse click.

Step 3: Insert special functions (SF)


In this programming example the NOT function block could be replaced by a direct negation of the S-input of the latching relay function.

LOGO! Soft Comfort V6.1

Via the context menu (right mouse button) on the digital input pins of all function blocks it is possible to negate the signal directly. This is also possible by a double click on the pin.

Step 4: Connecting
To complete the control circuit you need to connect the blocks with one another:

1.
LOGO! Soft Comfort V6.1

2.
Normally you can directly draw the connection line with the cursor after placing a block. If you are in a different mode, you will have to select the tool to get to the connecting mode. Now move the cursor over the connection pin of a block (a small blue box will be shown) and click the left mouse key. While holding down the key move the cursor to the pin you would like to connect with the first pin, and release the mouse key. The connection is drawn. Continue the same way with the other connections.

Step 5: Insert text fields


By inserting text fields the program can be understood more easily. With LOGO! Soft Comfort V6.1 there are several ways of embedding text into the program structure:

Adding a comment to each block in the program via the context menu (right mouse key).

For better program readability, comprehensive names can be assigned to inputs and outputs in addition to the text fields.

LOGO! Soft Comfort V6.1

Step 7: Moving elements


The control program is completed with insertion of function blocks and their connections. To get a reasonable, i.e. a clear view of the prepared control program, some further work is necessary. Placed objects such as function blocks, lines, and text fields can be moved accordingly.

This tool has to be selected, when you want to move function blocks, text fields or connection lines. LOGO! Soft Comfort V6.1

Step 8: Aligning
To design everything more neatly and more clearly, you can align the individual function blocks vertically and horizontally.

This button has to be activated to align the highlighted function blocks vertically.

LOGO! Soft Comfort V6.1

Firstly the function blocks must be selected to align them.

Step 9: Parameterization of blocks

Due to the split-up of the program across several pages, connection lines might have to be separated.

LOGO! Soft Comfort V6.1

Connections can easily be separated by selecting the scissor symbol. The interfaces are clearly labeled with the page number, block number and input pin. Clicking a second time with the scissor symbol on one of the interface placeholders undoes the separation.

Step 12: Program testing


After configuration and documentation, program testing via offline simulation is the next step.

LOGO! Soft Comfort V6.1

Now you know that the program can be run in LOGO!, but you still have to check whether your program works the way you intended it. Perhaps you would like to change some parameters. You can effortlessly change input values, check the behavior upon power failure and compare your calculations or expectations with the real behavior of the outputs.

Step 12: Program testing


An excellent tool is available for program testing. This tool has to be selected when you want to test the program. With the activation of the offline simulation a tool bar for monitoring and operation of inputs and outputs is selected. A plug symbol provides a simulation of power failure to test the behavior in regards to retentivity. For time-critical simulations you can also set the output of a block (forcing), by clicking the output with the right mouse button.

LOGO! Soft Comfort V6.1

By clicking on the buttons on the tool bar or on the inputs in the circuit diagram you can change the status of the inputs. The signal run can be tracked with the color change from blue (low signal) to red (high signal) of the connection lines. This makes error tracking a lot easier.

Step 12: Program testing


As an additional program testing feature, each input can be allocated to a certain switch function.

LOGO! Soft Comfort V6.1

Each input of a block can be allocated to a certain switch function via the context menu (right mouse key) of an input block. You can chose between pushbutton (n.o. contacts, n.c. contacts), switches and frequency inputs at digital inputs. With frequency inputs the simulated frequency can be adjusted in Hz. With analog inputs the value range and the start value is preset. These parameters can centrally be changed and reviewed as well via the menu item Tools -> Simulation parameters.

Step 13: Assign program password


To protect the program and your know how you can place a valid up to 10-digit password for that program.

LOGO! Soft Comfort V6.1 This password protects your program only on LOGO!. There you can not delete, change or view it without the password! To load a password protected program onto a PC, the password is necessary as well. To delete an assigned password, enter Old password and leave New Password empty. To be able to reuse a LOGO! with program and password when password is lost, the password has to be entered incorrectly three times at program deletion. Then the program and the PW is automatically deleted. This can alternatively be done by software. *)

Step 14: Transfer program to LOGO!


With LOGO! Soft Comfort V6.1 you have the possibility to either first realize your circuit diagram and then determine the required device via menu item Tools -> Determine LOGO! or you can firstly determine via Tools -> Select Hardware which LOGO! device you want to create your circuit diagram for.

LOGO! Soft Comfort V6.1 In the device choice you can view for every LOGO! generation which resources are available. All available function blocks or resources are offered in configuration mode depending on the selected version.

Step 14: Transfer program to LOGO!


After testing the program successfully you need to transfer it to the LOGO!. Therefore LOGO! has to be connected with the PC cable to the PC.

LOGO! Soft Comfort V6.1

Upon successful transfer a message appears in the status bar.

You have to click on this button to transfer a circuit diagram to LOGO!. Before transferring, the LOGO! version required for the configured circuit program, is identified. If the configured circuit program cannot be transferred to the available LOGO!, an error message is displayed and the transfer is aborted.

If the connection between LOGO! and PC is not established correctly, an error message will be displayed.

Step 15: Starting LOGO!


After transferring the program LOGO! has to be set to RUN-mode. Then the program can be tested in real life.
