PLC Tutorial (TwidoSuite) #14 (4-20 mA DC Signal to Analog Card cw PLC Program)

This video will continue on with the Ultrasonic Level Lab. Now we will take the 4 to 20 mA Analog Signal from the Ultrasonic Sensor that corresponds to the 10 to 50 cm of Liquid Water Level in our tank, and we will input this signal into our Twido PLC. The PLC program will make use of several Compare Statements to turn on sequential Outputs as the level reaches our 0 - 25%, 25 - 50%, 50% - 75%, and 75% to 100% of Tank Level.

How can I check 4-20mA input in P4100+

How to you wire a temperature sensor to the Schneider place?

Depends on the sensor, but every sensor has output cables one is positive the other is COM, you plug the Positive into one of the inputs of the PLC and the COM to the COM0 of the PLC. Also important to remember is the type of inputs the plc can read and if you need an expansion unit or not for the type of sensor you are using, if the output is analog (0-10V or 4-20 mA), you might need an expansion block for those, but the wiring is pretty the same but you wire directly to the expansion block instead of directly to the plc.
