Design and draw a ladder diagram circuit suitable for a PLC which willfulfil the following control requirement:
A momentary push switch is to be recognised, remembered and used to switch on an output for a period of 30 seconds. After 30 seconds this output is to be switched off and must be off for 0.5 seconds before a second output switches on.
The second output remains on until a second push switch is operated to turn it off. If the second push is operated at any time then the current output must turn off and the system await the press of the first push. The rungs of the ladder diagram must contain interlock contacts which prevent both outputs being on at the same time.

1. Design and draw a ladder diagram circuit suitable for a PLC which will fulfil the
following control requirement:
A momentary push switch is to be recognised, remembered and used to switch on
an output for a period of 30 seconds. After 30 seconds this output is to be switched
off and must be off for 0.5 seconds before a second output switches on.
The second output remains on until a second push switch is operated to turn it off. If
the second push is operated at any time then the cu
ent output must turn off and the
system await the press of the first push. The rungs of the ladder diagram must
contain interlock contacts which prevent both outputs being on at the same time.

Solution:


2. Redesign and improve the pelican crossing ladder diagram given of
FIGURE 1 of lesson PLC - 6 - 2 by adding timer rungs and counter rungs between
ungs 12 and 14 (or any similar workable scheme) together with the necessary
contacts inserted in the amber and green man lights of rungs
7 and 10, etc. The chart below shows the required sequence of events.
Note that a section of the chart is repeated a total of 16 times.
The time intervals are given below.

Time Periods 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 35 36 37
Green road light ON ON OFF OFF OFF OFF - OFF OFF ON
Red road light OFF OFF OFF ON OFF OFF - OFF OFF OFF
Amber road light OFF OFF ON OFF ON OFF - ON OFF OFF

Time period 1 is the 'normal' conditions.
Time period 2 is after the pedestrian presses the push button.
The change from period 2 to period 3 can only be made after at least one five
second check of the road sensors.
The time interval between 3 and 4 is 4 seconds.
The time interval between 4 and 5 is 10 seconds.
The time interval between 5 and 6 is 0.5 seconds.
The time interval between 6 and 7 is 0.5 seconds.
It is not necessary to show the whole of the traffic light ladder diagram of lesson PLC
- 6 - 2, only rungs which have been modified. There must, however, be a
comprehensive explanation of the operation of the modified rungs accompanying the
modified ladder diagram.

Explanation:
Modification 1: Insert a Counter which counts from 0 to 15. Tap the output of the counter and Insert
a switch at AMBER and GREEN Man Lights as these two signals will be...
