This app is designed to help anyone that is new to PLCs and wants to learn the basics of "How a PLC works" and PLAY with a simple simulator to experiment with some simple programming. The app consist of three main sections, "How a PLC works", "PLC Block Diagram" and the PLC Simulator. The PLC Simulator allows the beginner to learn simple programming skills with 3 timers, 2 counters, 6 compare instructions, 2 Binary outputs and 3 RES outputs. The user interface is very friendly. For first time users, there is an information icon that shows just how easy this app is to program. The NEW SAVE feature allows a user to start a program and come back to it at a later time. This app also helps people better understand the exam-off instruction -[/]-, the "Seal-In" or "Latching" logic, such as a motor start/stop circuit and much more. Enjoy the fast growing world of PLCs. My daughter found it very useful for her Mechatronics class. Try it, you will like it.
Sample and Adjust

Sample and Adjust supports adjustment of Endress+Hauser Promass concentration measurement to match results from laboratory or other reference measurement. The App automatically registers the relevant data from Promass during sample taking via Wi-Fi connection. Information about process stability and device diagnostics is provided to evaluate sample quality. Based on the result from laboratory analysis Sample and Adjust adjusts Promass concentration function and updates it accordingly. Currently implemented: - Adjustment on concentration profile 1 for Promass 300/500 with concentration package - Single point offset adjustment only - Basic workflow: o Connection via Wi-Fi to Promass o Process Check o Sample data recording o Input of reference (laboratory) value o Calculation of new concentration function o Transfer of adjusted concentration function to device - To do creation (Reconnect to device after To do creation not yet implemented) - Demo mode by selecting mock data in Settings
