&lt;br /&gt;
|- &lt;br /&gt;
|| &lt;br /&gt;
|| First we will learn about the '''OpenPLC Traffic light module'''.&lt;br /&gt;
|- &lt;br /&gt;
|| Slide 5: Traffic Light module&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This '''module''' is used to &lt;br /&gt;
* implement the working of '''traffic lights'''&lt;br /&gt;
* visualize the status of any process with the '''built-in LEDs'''&lt;br /&gt;
|| &lt;br /&gt;
This '''module''' is used to&lt;br /&gt;
* implement the working of '''traffic lights''' and&lt;br /&gt;
* visualize the status of any process with the '''built-in LEDs'''.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
|- &lt;br /&gt;
|| Traffic.jpg&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
|| This is a picture of the '''Traffic light module'''.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This '''module''' replicates a '''traffic light'''. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It has one red '''LED''' marked as '''STOP''' and one yellow '''LED''' marked as '''READY'''. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
At the bottom, it has 3 green '''LEDs''' marked as '''LEFT, GO '''and''' RIGHT.'''&lt;br /&gt;
|- &lt;br /&gt;
|| led-connectors.png&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
|| You can access all these '''LEDs''' using the '''connectors''' present below. &lt;br /&gt;
|- &lt;br /&gt;
|| traffic-sled.png or (traffic.jpg)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
|| The red '''LED''' can also be accessed through the two '''connectors''' on the right of it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If you want to use a single '''LED''' you can use these '''connectors'''.&lt;br /&gt;
|- &lt;br /&gt;
|| &lt;br /&gt;
|| Let us see how to do simple experiments using a single '''LED'''.&lt;br /&gt;
|- &lt;br /&gt;
|| traffic.jpg&lt;br /&gt;
|| The '''anode''' and '''cathode''' of the red '''LED''' are given as '''connectors''' to the right of it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The '''anode''' is marked as '''+5V''' and '''cathode''' as '''GND''', which is '''Ground'''.&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|- &lt;br /&gt;
|| &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
|| These '''connectors''' can be connected in 3 different ways.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We will see one by one.&lt;br /&gt;
|- &lt;br /&gt;
|| traffic.jpg&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
|| We can connect '''+5V pin''' to '''5V''' and '''GND pin''' to any '''I/O pin''' of the '''microcontroller'''.&lt;br /&gt;
|- &lt;br /&gt;
|| traffic.jpg&lt;br /&gt;
|| Connect '''GND pin''' to 0V and '''+5V pin''' to any '''I/O pin''' of the '''microcontroller'''.&lt;br /&gt;
|- &lt;br /&gt;
|| traffic.jpg&lt;br /&gt;
|| Otherwise connect both '''+5V''' and '''GND pins''' to the '''I/O pins''' of the '''microcontroller'''. &lt;br /&gt;
|- &lt;br /&gt;
|| Led-connectors.png&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
traffic.jpg image&lt;br /&gt;
|| We will see how to use '''LEDs''' with the '''connectors''' at the bottom of the '''module'''.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Each '''LED’s cathode''' is taken out through the '''connectors''' at the bottom of the '''module'''.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Note that the rightmost '''pin''' marked as '''‘EN’''' is not an '''LED connector'''. &lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|- &lt;br /&gt;
|| Led-connectors.png&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
traffic.jpg image&lt;br /&gt;
|| Each '''connector''' is marked with the first letter of the respective '''LED''' name.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We will see one by one starting from right.&lt;br /&gt;
# '''Ri''' is for green '''LED''' marked as '''RIGHT'''&lt;br /&gt;
# '''S''' is for red '''LED''' marked as '''STOP'''&lt;br /&gt;
# '''Re''' is for yellow '''LED''' marked as '''READY'''&lt;br /&gt;
# '''G''' is for green '''LED''' marked as '''GO'''&lt;br /&gt;
# '''L''' is for green '''LED''' marked as '''LEFT'''.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
|- &lt;br /&gt;
|| traffic-enable.png&lt;br /&gt;
|| '''‘EN’''' is an '''active low enable pin''' which enables all the '''LED pins'''.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
To the left of the yellow '''LED''', we can find a '''connector''' marked '''+5V'''.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This is the '''power pin''' of the '''module'''.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
That is, none of the '''LED''' glows unless you make these two connections.&lt;br /&gt;
|- &lt;br /&gt;
|| Slide 6: LED to glow &lt;br /&gt;
* +5V pin should be given 5V.&lt;br /&gt;
* EN and the respective '''LED''' pin should be grounded or given a logic-low signal.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
|| Therefore, for any '''LED''' to glow you should follow the below:&lt;br /&gt;
# '''+5V pin''' should be given '''5V'''.&lt;br /&gt;
# '''EN''' and the respective '''LED pin''' should be '''ground'''ed or given a '''logic-low signal'''.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
|- &lt;br /&gt;
|| &lt;br /&gt;
|| Now we’ll see the working of the '''module'''.&lt;br /&gt;
|- &lt;br /&gt;
|| Slide 7: How can the '''Traffic Light module''' be powered?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''Traffic Light module''' can be powered using the output power pins of the Mainboard&lt;br /&gt;
|| How can the '''Traffic Light module''' be powered?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It can be powered using the output '''power pins''' of the '''Mainboard'''.&lt;br /&gt;
|- &lt;br /&gt;
|| SMPS-Mainboard.jpg - add in editing&lt;br /&gt;
|| Connect the '''SMPS''' to the '''Mainboard''' as shown here.&lt;br /&gt;
|- &lt;br /&gt;
|| led-connectors.png&lt;br /&gt;
|| First we will see the demo of this '''module''' using the '''connectors''' available at the bottom.&lt;br /&gt;
|- &lt;br /&gt;
|| demo1.png&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Point to the image as per narration&lt;br /&gt;
|| Connect '''5V''' to the '''power pin''' i.e. '''+5V pin''' to the left of the yellow '''LED'''. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Connect '''0V''' to the '''‘EN’ pin'''.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Then, connect '''0V''' to any of the '''LEDs'''.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I’m connecting it to the '''pins''' marked '''‘G’''', '''‘Re’''' and '''‘S’'''.&lt;br /&gt;
|- &lt;br /&gt;
|| demo1.png&lt;br /&gt;
|| Make the connections as shown in the picture.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Remember to turn '''off''' the '''power supply''' when you change or make new connections.&lt;br /&gt;
|- &lt;br /&gt;
|| Turn '''on''' the '''power supply''' &lt;br /&gt;
|| After making all the connections turn '''on''' the '''power supply''' of the '''Mainboard'''.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The red, yellow and middle green '''LED''' has started glowing.&lt;br /&gt;
|- &lt;br /&gt;
|| &lt;br /&gt;
|| Do not use '''I/O pins''' of the '''Mainboard''' to power up the '''pin''' marked '''+5V'''.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Because it may affect the intensity of the '''LED'''. &lt;br /&gt;
|- &lt;br /&gt;
|| Disconnect the '''‘EN’ pin'''&lt;br /&gt;
|| Now disconnect the '''‘EN’ pin'''.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We can observe that all '''LEDs''' go '''off'''.&lt;br /&gt;
|- &lt;br /&gt;
|| Turn '''off''' the '''power supply'''&lt;br /&gt;
|| Turn '''off''' the '''power supply'''.&lt;br /&gt;
|- &lt;br /&gt;
|| traffic-sled.png&lt;br /&gt;
|| Next, we will see the demo on how to use this '''module''' when a single '''LED''' is needed.&lt;br /&gt;
|- &lt;br /&gt;
|| demo2.png&lt;br /&gt;
|| Connect '''5V''' to the '''+5V pin''' on the right of the red '''LED'''.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Connect '''0V''' to the '''pin''' marked '''GND'''.&lt;br /&gt;
|- &lt;br /&gt;
|| Turn '''on''' the '''power supply'''&lt;br /&gt;
|| Turn '''on''' the '''power supply'''.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This will make only the red '''LED''' to glow.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Thus, there is no need to connect power and enable '''pins''' for this connection.&lt;br /&gt;
|- &lt;br /&gt;
|| Turn '''off''' the '''power supply'''&lt;br /&gt;
|| Turn '''off''' the '''power supply'''.&lt;br /&gt;
|- &lt;br /&gt;
|| &lt;br /&gt;
|| We have seen how '''Traffic light module''' can be used in different ways.&lt;br /&gt;
|- &lt;br /&gt;
|| &lt;br /&gt;
|| Now we’ll learn about the '''OpenPLC Switchboard module'''.&lt;br /&gt;
|- &lt;br /&gt;
|| Slide 5: Switchboard module&lt;br /&gt;
* The goal of this '''module''' is to get familiarized with different types of '''switches'''&lt;br /&gt;
* In particular their usage in the real time applications in industries&lt;br /&gt;
|| &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The goal of this '''module''' is to get familiarized with different types of '''switches'''.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In particular their usage in the real time applications in industries.&lt;br /&gt;
|- &lt;br /&gt;
|| Slide 6: Main Components&lt;br /&gt;
* 4 Normally Open '''switches'''&lt;br /&gt;
* 4 Normally Closed '''switches'''&lt;br /&gt;
* 2 '''Latched action switches''' and&lt;br /&gt;
* '''LEDs''' for each '''switch'''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
|| This module has&lt;br /&gt;
* 4 Normally Open '''switches'''&lt;br /&gt;
* 4 Normally Closed '''switches'''&lt;br /&gt;
* 2 '''Latched action switches''' and&lt;br /&gt;
* '''LEDs''' for each '''switch'''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
|- &lt;br /&gt;
|| switchboard.jpg&lt;br /&gt;
|| This is the '''Switchboard module'''.&lt;br /&gt;
|- &lt;br /&gt;
|| Slide 7: Types of Switches:&lt;br /&gt;
* Normally open (NO)&lt;br /&gt;
* Normally closed (NC)&lt;br /&gt;
* Latched action (L)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
|| In this '''module''', there are three kinds of '''switches''' available.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
They are '''Normally Open, Normally Closed '''and''' Latched action switches.'''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''Normally Open''' is represented as '''NO''' and '''Normally Closed''' is represented as '''NC'''.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''Latched action switches''' are represented as '''L'''.&lt;br /&gt;
|- &lt;br /&gt;
|| SB-switches.png&lt;br /&gt;
|| We will now look at their arrangement on the '''module''' from bottom to top.&lt;br /&gt;
|- &lt;br /&gt;
|| SB-switches.png&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Highlight Latch switches&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Then NC and then NO&lt;br /&gt;
|| At the bottom, we have two '''Latched action switches'''.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Above that we have 4 '''Normally Closed''' and then 4 '''Normally Open switches'''.&lt;br /&gt;
|- &lt;br /&gt;
|| SB-leds.png&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
|| Above these '''switches''' we have '''LEDs''' corresponding to each '''switch'''. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The '''LEDs''' are arranged in the same order as that of '''switches'''.&lt;br /&gt;
|- &lt;br /&gt;
|| &lt;br /&gt;
|| Each '''LED''' glow indicates a corresponding '''switch''' press.&lt;br /&gt;
|- &lt;br /&gt;
|| SB-connectors.png&lt;br /&gt;
|| On the top we have '''female berg connectors''' for connections.&lt;br /&gt;
|- &lt;br /&gt;
|| SB-connectors-z.png&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Point to each particular pin&lt;br /&gt;
|| Next, we will see about the '''pins'''.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Starting from the right, the first two '''pins''' are '''GND''' and '''5V''' respectively.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
These are the input '''power pins''' of this '''module.'''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Then we have 4 '''pins''' for 4 '''NO switches '''and 4 pins for 4 '''NC switches.''' &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The last 2 '''pins''' are for 2 '''latched action switches'''.&lt;br /&gt;
|- &lt;br /&gt;
|| Slide 8: Important Note&lt;br /&gt;
* NO and latched action '''switches''' must be connected to the '''I/Os''' of the '''microcontroller'''&lt;br /&gt;
* Only then the '''LEDs''' of the corresponding '''switches''' will work&lt;br /&gt;
* '''LEDs''' of '''NC switches''' will work, even if they are not connected to '''I/Os'''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
|| '''NO''' and '''Latched action switches''' must be connected to the '''I/Os''' of the '''microcontroller'''.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Only then the '''LEDs''' of the corresponding '''switches''' will work.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
LEDs of '''NC switches''' will work, even if they are not connected to the '''I/Os''' of the '''microcontroller'''.&lt;br /&gt;
|- &lt;br /&gt;
|| &lt;br /&gt;
|| Now, we’ll learn how each type of the '''switch''' works.&lt;br /&gt;
|- &lt;br /&gt;
|| Slide 9: Normally Open Switch&lt;br /&gt;
* The output '''pin''' of a '''NO switch '''will read '''logic 0''' when it is not pressed&lt;br /&gt;
* When the '''switch''' is pressed, the output '''pin''' will read '''5V'''&lt;br /&gt;
* This is due to the supply from the '''microcontroller'''’s internal '''pull up register'''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
|| The output '''pin''' of a '''NO switch '''will read '''logic 0''' when it is not pressed.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When the '''switch''' is pressed, the output '''pin''' will read '''5V'''.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This is due to the supply from the '''microcontroller'''’s internal '''pull up register'''.&lt;br /&gt;
|- &lt;br /&gt;
|| Slide 10: Normally Closed switch&lt;br /&gt;
* The output '''pin''' of a '''NC switch''' will read '''5V''' when it is not pressed&lt;br /&gt;
* This is due to the supply from the '''microcontroller'''’s internal '''pull up register'''&lt;br /&gt;
* Upon '''switch''' press, the output '''pin''' will read '''logic 0''' or '''ground'''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
|| The output '''pin''' of a '''NC switch''' will read '''5V''' when it is not pressed.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This is due to the supply from the '''microcontroller'''’s internal '''pull up register'''.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Upon '''switch''' press, the output '''pin''' will read '''logic 0''' or '''ground'''.&lt;br /&gt;
|- &lt;br /&gt;
|| Slide 11: Latched action switch&lt;br /&gt;
* It is basically a '''push-to-make, push-to-break''' type of '''switch'''&lt;br /&gt;
* That is, the output '''pin''' will read '''5V''', when it is pressed for the first time&lt;br /&gt;
* The output '''pin''' will read '''0V''', when it is pressed for the second time&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
|| '''Latched action switch''' is basically a '''push-to-make, push-to-break''' type of '''switch'''.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
That is, the output '''pin''' will read '''5V''', when it is pressed for the first time.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The output '''pin''' will read '''0V''', when it is pressed for the second time.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Working of the '''LED''' of a''' latched action switch '''corresponds to that of a''' NO switch.'''&lt;br /&gt;
|- &lt;br /&gt;
|| Slide 12: How can the Switchboard module be powered?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''Switchboard module''' can be powered using the output '''power pins''' of the '''Mainboard'''&lt;br /&gt;
|| How can the '''Switchboard module''' be powered?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It can be powered using the output '''power pins''' of the '''Mainboard'''.&lt;br /&gt;
|- &lt;br /&gt;
|| &lt;br /&gt;
|| We have learnt about the different types of '''switches''' in the '''Switchboard module'''.&lt;br /&gt;
|- &lt;br /&gt;
|| &lt;br /&gt;
|| Using these '''modules''' we will learn about '''LDmicro''' instructions on '''OpenPLC''' in future tutorials.&lt;br /&gt;
|- &lt;br /&gt;
|| &lt;br /&gt;
|| This brings us to the end of this tutorial.&lt;br /&gt;
