Arduino Basics – The Getting Started with Arduino Online Course:

In a recent piece from TheAutomationSchool, the world of Arduino microcontrollers was unveiled to readers, providing a thorough guide for novices. The article delved into basic concepts such as the evolution of Arduino and the unboxing experiences of four kits from 2024.

It also offered hands-on advice on obtaining the Arduino programming software, devising, coding, and testing projects at no cost, and opening, checking, and uploading projects. Furthermore, the article showcased how to construct test circuits both with and without Arduino, how to operate motors and servos, how to utilize sequential logic, and even included a project on building a traffic light system using Arduino. In summary, the article acted as a beneficial resource for those interested in exploring the potential of Arduino in electronic projects.

Compact 5000 I/O System:

Rockwell Automation recently published an article detailing the features of the Compact 5000™ I/O system. This system offers a broad selection of standard and safety modules. It is equipped with dual gigabit (Gb) embedded Ethernet ports for Device Level Ring (DLR) and Linear topologies, offering adaptability and customization for applications that demand high speed and performance.

The Compact 5000™ I/O system is engineered to enhance performance capabilities within the Logix platform. It has a compact structure that serves as local I/O modules in a CompactLogix™ 5380, Compact GuardLogix® 5380, or CompactLogix system.

A notable feature of the Compact 5000™ I/O system is its compatibility with the Compact 5000 EtherNet/IP™ adapter. This makes it an optimal distributed I/O solution for controllers such as the CompactLogix 5380, Compact GuardLogix 5380, CompactLogix, ControlLogix® 5580, and GuardLogix 5580.

ET 200pro: EM 2 SSI for connecting SSI absolute encoders by Siemens

By
Julius Frago
-

ET 200pro:

A recent Siemens article announced the availability of the EM 2 SSI electronic module, a part of the SIMATIC ET 200pro distributed I/O system. This module is engineered to ease the connection of SSI absolute encoders with RS-422 interfaces, providing two identical channels for this function. To maximize the use of this module, the CM SSI 2xM12 connection module (6ES7194-4CC00-0AA0) needs to be ordered separately.

The SIMATIC ET 200pro system is known for its robust and modular structure, offering an IP65/67 protection level. This system offers a broad selection of modules, allowing for diverse application possibilities directly on the machine, eliminating the need for a control cabinet. Its hot-swappable design facilitates easy module replacement without needing to shut down the system, guaranteeing uninterrupted operation.

The introduction of the EM 2 SSI expansion module allows users to integrate SSI absolute encoders for position recording, further boosting the system’s adaptability and functionality.

ABB co-launches interoperability initiative to unlock Industrial IoT insights

By
Julius Frago

Interoperability initiative to unlock Industrial IoT insights:

In a recent ABB article, Florian Schneeberger, the CTO of ABB’s Machine Automation division (B&R), underscored the significance of data sources in making decisions. He expressed, “The greater the number of data sources, the more informed the decisions.” Schneeberger further highlighted the difficulties of traversing diverse industrial ecosystems and the essential role of interoperability in fully realizing digitalization. He elaborated that interoperability allows organizations to quickly implement and scale Industrial IoT solutions without the need for extensive IT specialist teams.

In March 2024, ABB became a member of the Linux Foundation, a step intended to boost efforts to foster open community collaboration. This move is anticipated to stimulate innovation and facilitate the creation of superior products and experiences for customers. This decision also reaffirms ABB’s dedication to systems based on open standards.

At a live panel discussion at the Hannover Messe, representatives from the six founding members (ABB, Capgemini, Microsoft, Rockwell Automation, Schneider Electric, and Siemens) shared their vision for edge interoperability in the Industrial IoT. They also invited industry colleagues with similar interests to join the community and contribute to the creation of a substantial and effective standard. A recording of the panel discussion will be accessible at http://www.margo.org.

Innovative S7-1511T(F)-1PN and 1515T(F)-2 PN CPUs by Siemens

By
Julius Frago

SIMATIC S7-1500 CPUs 1511T(F)-1PN and 1515T(F)-2 PN:

A recent Siemens article reported that the SIMATIC S7-1500 Technology CPUs 1511T(F)-1 PN and 1515T(F)-2 PN are being upgraded. The firmware version V3.0 expands the CPUs’ capabilities and boosts their performance. Moreover, the program and data memory have been augmented. These enhanced CPUs are now ready for delivery and can be purchased with new article numbers (Update 2023.06.06).

The updated design incorporates the display into the CPU and substitutes the RUN/STOP switch with two push buttons. The positioning of the RJ45 sockets has also been improved for more convenient Ethernet cable insertion.

In addition, the CPUs’ performance, program and data memory, and communication performance have been amplified. The inclusion of an extra processor core notably enhances communication performance. These CPUs can now function in a variety of ambient temperatures, ranging from -30°C to +60°C.

Furthermore, the (Extended) Motion Control Resources will see an increase as part of these upgrades.
