| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| Slide 5: Prerequisites - Hardware setup

| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| Connect''' SMPS''' and '''USBasp''' to the '''Mainboard''' as shown in the picture.

Keep these connections throughout this tutorial.

|-
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| Open LDmicro 
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| Let us open '''LDmicro'''.

|-
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| 
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| First, we’ll learn about working of a '''Negated Coil'''.

|-
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| Click ‘Instructions -> Insert Coil’
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| Insert a '''Coil''' from '''Instructions''' as shown.

|-
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| Double-click on the coil
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| Double-click on the '''Coil'''.

|-
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| Click ‘Negated’ radio button >> Type LED in the name column

Click OK button
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| Select the ‘'''Negated'''’ option in the '''Type''' column. 

Rename the Coil as '''LED''' and click on the OK button.

|-
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| Highlight coil
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| We can observe a slash between the brackets for a '''Negated''' '''Coil'''.

|-
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| 
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| We will now check the working of this logic.

|-
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| Click ‘Simulate -> Simulation mode’

Click ‘Simulate -> Real-time simulation’
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| Let us turn on the simulation mode.

For that, click '''Simulate''' and then on '''Simulation mode.'''

Next, start real-time simulation as shown.

|-
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| Highlight I/O list
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| Observe the state of '''YLED''' in the '''I/O list.'''

|-
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| Highlight the state of YLED in I/O list at the bottom of the screen
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| We can observe that the state of '''YLED''' is 0.

That is for a '''Negated''' '''Coil''' when the input is logic 1, the output will be logic 0.

|-
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| Click Simulate -> Halt Simulation >> Click Simulate -> Simulation Mode
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| Now, turn off the simulation mode.

For that, click '''Simulate''' and then on '''Halt Simulation.'''

Then click '''Simulate''' and '''Simulation Mode.'''

|-
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| 
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| Now let us compile the logic.

The detailed steps on how to compile and save the logic are explained in the earlier tutorials. 

|-
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| Click on Settings >> Click on Microcontroller >> Select AVR ATmega16 40-PDIP 

Click on Settings >> Click on MCU parameters >> Change Crystal frequency to 16
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| Click on '''Settings''' and select the microcontroller '''AVR ATmega16 40-PDIP.''' 

Adjust its parameters as shown here.

|-
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| Double-click on YLED in I/O list >> Select PA0 >> Click OK button
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| Then, assign '''pin PA0''' to the Coil '''YLED'''.

|-
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| Click on Compile >> Click on Compile >> Go to Desktop/LDmicro folder >> Rename it as ‘negatedcoil.hex’ >> Click on Save.

Click OK button
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| Compile the logic as '''negatedcoil.hex''' as shown.

|-
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| Click on File >> Click on Save >> Go to Desktop/LDmicro folder >> Rename it as ‘negatedcoil.ld’ >> Click on Save
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| Then save the ladder diagram as '''negatedcoil.ld''' as shown.

|-
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| 
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| Now we will see the working of this logic on hardware.

|-
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| Connect Mainboard to PC using USBasp

| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| Connect the '''Mainboard''' to your laptop using '''USBasp'''.

Turn on the power supply.

|-
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| Open terminal >> Type cd Desktop/LDmicro >> Press ENTER >> type ‘'''avrdude -c usbasp -p m16 -U flash:w:negatedcoil.hex’ '''>> Press ENTER
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| Open the Terminal by pressing '''CTRL+ALT+T''' keys simultaneously.

Go to the folder where you have saved the hex file.

Type the command as shown to upload the hex file to the '''Mainboard'''.

|-
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| Remove the '''USBasp''' connection from the laptop.
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| Turn off the power supply.

Remove the '''USBasp''' connection from the laptop.

This will prevent any hardware damage.

|-
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| 
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| Let us see the connection details now. 

|-
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| 
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| Connect '''+5V pin''' of the red LED of '''Traffic Light module''' to '''5V pin''' of the '''Mainboard'''.

Then connect the '''GND pin''' of the red LED to '''PA0 pin''' of the '''Mainboard'''.

Make the connections as shown in the picture.

|-
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| 
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| Note the difference in the connections with that of a '''Normal Coil'''.

|-
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| 
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| After making all the connections properly turn on the power supply.

|-
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| Point to the output

| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| We can observe that the red LED is glowing.

That is the I/O pin '''PA0''' gives the output of the Coil which is logic 0.

|-
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| 
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| Thus we learnt the working of a Negated Coil using an LED.

|-
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| 
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| Turn off the power supply.

Remove the connections made for this example.

|-
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| 
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| Next, we will learn about the working of '''Negated Contact.'''

|-
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| Switch back to LDmicro
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| Switch back to '''LDmicro'''.

|-
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| 
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| Instead of creating a new file, we will make changes in the previous file itself.

|-
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| Place the cursor to the left of the coil >> Click on Instruction -> Insert Contact
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| Place a '''Contact''' to the left of the '''Coil''' as shown here.

|-
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| Double-click on the Contact >> Check the ‘Negated' box
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| Double-click on the '''Contact''' and check the '''Negated''' box.

|-
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| 
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| '''Negated Contact''' will pass the state of the signal when its state is logic 0.

|-
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| Type switch in the name box >> Click the OK button
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| Rename the Contact as '''‘switch’''' and click the OK button.

|-
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| 
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| We will now check the working of this logic.

|-
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| Click Simulate -> Simulation mode >> Click Simulate -> Real-time simulation
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| Start real-time simulation as shown.

|-
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| Highlight the states of both Xswitch and YLED in the I/O list
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| Observe the state of the '''Contact''' and the '''Coil''' in the '''I/O list'''.

Initially the state of both '''Xswitch''' and '''YLED''' are 0.

|-
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| Double-click on Xswitch
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| Change the state of the '''Xswitch''' to 1.

|-
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| Highlight the states of both Xswitch and YLED in the I/O list
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| We can observe that the state of '''YLED''' is also 1.

|-
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| 
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| Thus, when the state of a '''Negated Contact''' is 1 it doesn’t pass the signal through it.

That is the output from a Negated Contact is 0, when its input is logic 1.

|-
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| Click Simulate -> Halt Simulation >> Click Simulate -> Simulation Mode
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| Turn off the simulation mode as shown.

|-
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| 
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| We will now compile this logic.

|-
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| Highlight the status bar at the bottom of the screen
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| We can observe that the microcontroller and its parameters are already set.

|-
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| Double-click on Xswitch in I/O list >> Select PC0 >> Click OK button
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| Assign the '''pin PC0''' to '''Xswitch'''.

|-
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| Click on Compile >> Click on Compile as >> Go to Desktop/LDmicro folder >> Rename it as ‘negatedcontact.hex’ >> Click on Save.

Click OK button
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| Compile the logic as '''negatedcontact.hex '''using the '''‘Compile As’''' option. 

|-
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| Click on File >> Click on Save As >> Go to Desktop/LDmicro folder >> Rename it as ‘negated-contact.ld’ >> Click on Save
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| Then save the ladder diagram as '''negatedcontact.ld '''using the '''‘Save As’''' option'''.'''

|-
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| 
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| Now we will see the working of this logic on hardware.

|-
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| Connect Mainboard to PC using USBasp

| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| Connect the '''Mainboard''' to your laptop using '''USBasp'''.

Turn on the power supply.

|-
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| Switch back to terminal >> type ‘'''avrdude -c usbasp -p m16 -U flash:w:negatedcontact.hex’ '''>> Press ENTER
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| Switch back to the terminal.

Go to the folder where you have saved the hex file.

Type the command as shown and upload this hex file to the '''Mainboard'''.

|-
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| Remove the '''USBasp''' connection from the laptop.
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| Turn off the power supply.

Remove the '''USBasp''' connection from the laptop.

This will prevent any hardware damage.

|-
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| 
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| Let us see the connection details now. 

|-
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| 
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| Connect '''GND''' and '''5V''' of switchboard to '''GND''' and '''5V''' of the '''Mainboard''' respectively.

Then connect '''NO1''' of the '''switchboard''' to '''PC0''' of the '''Mainboard.'''

|-
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"|
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| Connect '''+5V pin''' of the red LED of '''Traffic Light module''' to '''5V pin''' of the '''Mainboard'''.

Then connect the '''GND pin''' of the red LED to '''PA0 pin''' of the '''Mainboard'''.

Make the connections as shown in the picture.

|-
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"|
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| After making all the connections properly, turn on the power supply.

|-
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| 
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| We can observe that the LED glows even before the switch '''NO1''' is pressed.

The red LED turns off whenever the '''NO1''' is pressed.

That is the corresponding switch LED and the red LED glows alternately.

|-
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| 
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| Now connect '''PC0''' to '''NC1''' instead of '''NO1 '''as shown in the picture.

|-
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| 
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| Let us see the live demo now.

We can observe the red LED is off initially.

It is ON whenever the switch''' NC1''' is pressed.

That is the corresponding switch LED and the red LED glows simultaneously.

|-
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| 
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| Now connect '''PC0''' to '''L1 '''as shown in the picture.

|-
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| 
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| Initially, the red LED is on.

The red LED turns off when the '''L1''' is pressed.

Thus the corresponding switch LED and the red LED glows alternately.

|-
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| 
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| This shows how a '''Negated''' '''Contact''' behaves with different types of switches.

|-
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| 
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| Turn off the power supply.

|-
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| 
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| This brings us to the end of this tutorial.

Let us summarize

|-
| style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:0.176cm;"| Slide 5: Summary
