DLP-232PC Datasheet/PDFDLP-232PC is a programmable logic controller (PLC) with embedded CPU and various I/O, communication and timer functions. It is primarily used to control various automation devices and systems, such as scales, sensors, robots, lasers, and more, to name a few. In addition to these devices, DLP-232PC can be used as an interface to connect the various data-centric devices and systems.
The DLP-232PC has 32-bits microprocessor for fast processor speed and real-time operation. It’s memory capacity is 4 MB, allowing for a large amount of data storage. While its communications capabilities include RS485, RS232, and Ethernet ports, as well as a Modbus RTU. Additionally, the DLP-232PC has an integrated 16 element I/O port that’s expandable to 32 elements.
The main application fields of the DLP-232PC include communication, logic monitoring, and supervisory control. As an example, communication can include remote I/O, while logic monitoring applications involve monitoring of signals and data within the I/O modules. Supervisory control applications are centered on the programming of specific functions, such as controlling speed or process measurement.
In terms of actual operation, the DLP-232PC works via programming instructions that are either entered directly by the user or read from an external source. Once programmed, the instructions are stored in the onboard memory and can be executed whenever necessary. When power is removed from the device, the memory automatically recalls these instructions.
The DLP-232PC also has several onboard sensors and timers, along with a relay output module, making it suitable for many kinds of monitoring and control applications. For example, the integrated temperature sensors can be used to measure temperature, humidity, and pressure, while timers can be used to control on-off intervals. Additionally, the relay output module enables the device to be used for switching on or off any external device.
In conclusion, the DLP-232PC is designed to offer a flexible yet reliable solution in a range of application fields, such as communication, logic monitoring and supervisory control. Its embedded processors, memory and communication capabilities, as well as its onboard sensors and timers, make it an attractive option for many automation and data acquisition applications.
