MicroLogix 1200 Controller
High functionality
in acost-effective package.
The
MicroLogix 1200 packaged controllers address the market trend
for Micro-PLCs with a small footprint and high functionality.
More powerful and flexible than
ever, this family of small, cost-effective micro-controllers can
expand up to 136 I/O. With the addition dc powered controllers
that provide a 20 kHz PTO (Pulse Train Output) or PWM (Pulse Width
Modulated) output for inexpensive stepper or servo motor control,
six new discrete and analog I/O modules, and six new features
with the Micrologix 1200 series C controllers, you can use the
MicroLogix 1200 family to solve more applications than ever before.
So if you ’re looking for a small,
feature-rich, flexible and cost-effective control solution, the
MicroLogix 1200 family of micro-controllers is your answer.
Features and Benefits
- 24-I/O and 40-I/O
- High speed I/O:
20 kHz HSC,20 kHz PTO/PWM output
- Expansion to 136
I/O for greater application flexibility
- Six new discrete
and analog expansion I/O modules to solve even more applications
- Full ASCII (read/write)capability
- Large non-volatile
6K memory
- Several communication
options to solve applications from peer-to-peer to device level
to SCADA/RTU
- Real time clock
and memory modules
- Compatibility with
MicroLogix and SLC 500 instruction set and RSLogix 500 software
Series C Enhancements
- Floating Point Data
– provides large numbers from -3.4028 x 1038 to +3.4028
x 1038 ±1.17549 x 10-38 for even more accurate data when using
Compare, Math, Move, File, and Communication instructions.
- Programmable Limit
Switch (PLS) function – lets you configure the High Speed
Counter to operate as a programmable limit switch or rotary
cam switch.
- Copy Word (CPW)
instruction – copies words of data, in ascending order,
from a source location to a destination location. The data can
be the same type or different (i.e., Integer to Integer or Integer
to Floating Point, etc.). Example: The Copy Word instruction
can be used in ladder logic to allow an operator interface (like
a PanelView) to adjust the controller's real time clock for
day light savings time.
- Real Time Clock
Adjust (RTA) instruction – synchronizes the controller's
Real Time Clock with an external source (such as a timing beacon,
etc.). The RTA instruction will adjust the RTC to the nearest
minute.
- Gray Code (GCD)
instruction – converts Gray code data to an integer value
- no need to write conversion routines in ladder, thus saving
programming memory.
- Absolute Value (ABS)
instruction – takes the absolute value of the source and
places it in the destination. The data range for this instruction
is -2,147,483,648 to 2,147,483,647 or IEEE-754 floating point
value.
Important: These enhancements are added to Series B or
earlier controllers through a firmware upgrade. This upgrade
is not required, except to access the new features. To use the
new features, your controller’s firmware and software should
be at the following levels:
- MicroLogix 1200,
Series C, Revision A, FRN 4
- RSLogix 500
version 5.00
