For specific information required by EN 61131-2, see the appropriate sections in this publication, as well as the following Allen-Bradley publications:. Industrial Automation Wiring and Grounding Guidelines for Noise Immunity, publication 1770-4.1.
Installing Your Controller Safety Considerations Safety considerations are an important element of proper system installation. Actively thinking about the safety of yourself and others, as well as the condition of your equipment, is of primary importance.
We recommend reviewing the following safety considerations. Hazardous Location Considerations This equipment is suitable for use in Class I, Division 2, Groups A, B, C, D or non-hazardous locations only.
Installing Your Controller Use only the following communication cables in Class I, Division 2 hazardous locations. Table 2.1 Cables for Use in Class I, Division 2 Hazardous Environment 1761-CBL-PM02 Series C or later 2707-NC8 Series B or later 1761-CBL-HM02 Series C or later 2707-NC9 Series B or later 1761-CBL-AM00 Series C or later 2707-NC10 Series B or later. Installing Your Controller Power Distribution There are some points about power distribution that you should know:. The master control relay must be able to inhibit all machine motion by removing power to the machine I/O devices when the relay is de-energized. It is recommended that the controller remain powered even when the master control relay is de-energized. Installing Your Controller Power Supply Inrush During power-up, the MicroLogix 1500 power supply allows a brief inrush current to charge internal capacitors. Many power lines and control transformers can supply inrush current for a brief time.
If the power source cannot supply this inrush current, the source voltage may sag momentarily. Installing Your Controller power supply shuts down the system. Understanding this concept is important. Write the user program, taking this effect into account. Other Types of Line Conditions Occasionally the power source to the system can be temporarily interrupted.
It is also possible that the voltage level may drop substantially below the normal line voltage range for a period of time. Installing Your Controller Master Control Relay A hard-wired master control relay (MCR) provides a reliable means for emergency machine shutdown. Since the master control relay allows the placement of several emergency-stop switches in different locations, its installation is important from a safety standpoint. Overtravel limit switches or mushroom-head push buttons are wired in series so that when any of them opens, the master control relay is de-energized. Installing Your Controller equipment within the enclosure, use the disconnect to shut off power to the rest of the system.
Do not control the master control relay with the controller. Provide the operator with the safety of a direct connection between an emergency-stop switch and the master control relay. 2-10 Installing Your Controller Schematic (Using IEC Symbols) 230V ac Disconnect Fuse 230V ac Circuits Isolation Operation of either ofthese contacts will Transformer remove power from the external I/O circuits, stopping machine motion.

Hi, I have just bought a second hand AB 1200 Micrologix PLC and 2 modules with a view to learning more about PLCs' and how to program and interact with them. One thing I overlooked was the software available to program them! I have downloaded and installed the free software as per the help on this forum.
My question is will I be able to use this software to program my 1200? As we all know with the free software I only get 1000 and 1100 options. Any advice would be warmly welcome as I am a complete novice when it comes to PLC's, Thanks inn advance, Mike. Good afternoon Mike, To program the MicroLogix 1200, 1400, or 1500 at a minimum you'll need a copy of RSLogix Micro Starter (not lite) which according to proposal works is current around $150: 9324-RLM0100ENE, RSLogix Micro Starter, English - Digital Download $1-RLM0100ENM, RSLogix Micro Starter, English - DVD $145.00 (also includes Digital Download last time I checked) You could also ask your local distributor for a 30 temporary license, but I'm not sure if that will help: Hope this helps, Shawn Tierney of The Automation Blog.
