FLOOD LIGHTNING

 



Floodlight is a broad-beamed, high-intensity artificial light. They are often used to illuminate outdoor playing fields while an outdoor sports event is being held during low-light conditions. More focused kinds are often used as a stage lighting instrument in live performances such as concerts and plays.

In the top tiers of many professional sports, it is a requirement for stadiums to have floodlights to allow games to be scheduled outside daylight hours. Evening or night matches may suit spectators who have work or other commitments earlier in the day, and enable television broadcasts during lucrative primetime hours. Some sports grounds which do not have permanent floodlights installed may make use of portable temporary ones instead. Many larger floodlights (see bottom picture) will have gantries for bulb changing and maintenance. These will usually be able to accommodate one or two maintenance workers.

Floodlights may also be used to add effects to buildings at night, called architectural illumination.

PLC COUNTERS

Image
  Counters in PLC programming serve as  invaluable tools for keeping track of various processes and events within industrial automation systems . Their operation revolves around monitoring input signals, which could be anything from sensor readings to specific conditions in the production line. Types of PLC counters There are two main types of PLC counters, the count-up counter, and the count-down counter. For the counter-up counters, we have a counter file name, a counter preset value, a counter accumulated value, a counter count-up bit, and a counter done bit. For the counter-down counters, we have the same bits and values. The only thing that is different is the  counter-down  bit on the output. As you can see below, we have this as  counter-up  bit for the counter-up counter. There are also two internal memory bits of counter overflow and counter underflow which we’ll discuss later in this article. PLC counter values The counter file name is a PLC tag. ...
