PLC Troubleshooting

PLC troubleshooting involves identifying and fixing errors that cause the PLC to behave unpredictably. The process of troubleshooting involves converting the symptom to a desired action not occurring, which then is single out to a real world input or output. You then trace backward from real world I/O through internal conditions to be met.The following are some steps to troubleshoot a PLC:

  • Check the power supply and ground cabling visually.

  • Troubleshoot inputs and outputs to figure out why the PLC’s internal status is not in line with the external situation.

  • Check inputs for proper wiring.

  • Check outputs for proper wiring.

  • Identify the root cause of the problem and then take the necessary steps to fix it.

​Scotton is a small village and civil parish in the Harrogate district of North Yorkshire, England with a population of 524 in the 2001 census,[2] increasing to 624 at the 2011 Census.[1] It is 3 miles (5 km) north of Harrogate, 1.2 miles (2 km) north west of Knaresborough[3] and is just north of the River Nidd where it flows through Nidd Gorge.[4][5] However, all the watercourses through the village and the parish flow eastwards via the River Tutt and empty into the River Ure, despite Scotton being very close to the Nidd.[6]
