Difference Between Warm Restart, Cold Restart and Hot Restart in Siemens PLC



Warm Restart:
  • In warm restart all non-retentive address like input output memory addresses are reset and cyclic program execution start at beginning.
Cold Restart:
  • It is same as Warm restart except that all even retentive memory are reset and cyclic programming start at begning.
Hot Restart :
  • No values are reset either it is retentive or non retentive. The program execution also start from where it is stoppped

Why 27648 Analog Maximum Value in Siemens PLC???

-
Analog module in Siemens convert voltage (or other) into integer 16-bit (word data type), so it have 2^16 = 65536 count. Analog module in Siemens comes with varies bit-resolution 8-15 . So for max count (15 bit) it have 2^15=32768 count (0...32767).  PLC always convert voltage (or other) into word value regardless the resolution and its conversion is shown below:   Volt:    0....10         into Count: 0.....27648 although the rated range is 0-10V (0-27648), PLC also have over-control range (27649-32511), and overflow (32767). Noted that 27648 is not analog maximum value, its the analog rated maximum value. The real maximum value is 32767 (overflow) -> 2^15. So if you give module's input 10.2V it will convert into value bigger than 27648 and not destruct the module (as long as it still below permissible input voltage). But i still don't know why Siemens choose 27648 not 27000 or other (maybe rated range 84...

Basics Of S7-400

Image
Above Picture is basically of CPU41x-1. In this one port X1 is present and accordingly  LEDs are present. X1 port is of MPI/DP. Near to MPI/DP serial number of CPU is present which in further helps in getting manufacturing data. Mode selector switch is used to change CPU mode manually. We can make it either RUN/Stop/MRES.   LED indications help in determine the status of CPU, fault diagnosis at glance. Details diagnosis can be done through CPU Module information option available in PG step 7.   Memory card slot is used to insert memory card of two type: a.     FLASH card.             b.    RAM card.   External Battery connector is used to supply voltage to CPU through external supply range from 5 V-15 V in case of change of power card. This is used to maintain the program in the RAM and also to maintain values at counter, timer etc. It requires 2.5 mm Jack and to check the polarity as shown be...
