Wiring Allen Bradley Compactlogix Sinking Inputs and Sourcing Outputs

hello Mr Tim Wilborne thank you for the efforts made to teatche us how to trublshout our wiring circuit . that was great your video about th NPN and PNP i am very happy now . cheers from Morocco

Good evening
I would like to get a kit plc training like you have to start working with plc
Or where I can buy it

This is a great video! does the FP- terminal wiring to the DC common only work for inputs 0-7 and there is a separate DC common for inputs 8-15? or does FP- cover the commons for all 16 inputs?

How is a safety signal (sensor) wired? and how DCS or RIN instructions works?

Dont get it so your checking source power for button not working

Good video. The wiring diagram was great for clarity. Would be nice if camera zoomed in more on the terminals and their markings.

Can you try , different sensor and how to wired it on PLC. For example 2 wire proximity sensor

Thank you for all that info!

Excellent video, Thanks Tim for share you knowledge

Hi Tim, I looked for the wiring diagram in the link you placed above, but couldn't find it. Would you mind directing me to that diagram?

Thanks for the videos. I'm Very new to PLC's and I am attempting to use an open source plc for my senior project. Would you suggest a power distribution block to hump the power from Inputs? I have a very small workspace and want to clean up the wiring. Any help is appreciated.

Thank you for the initial PLC training

Hi Tim, this is Rudy Bart from Los Angeles, CA

thank you

What are the wire color standards for 24VDC wiring?

thanks

Hey Tim , I don’t need physical inputs and outputs wired for the LEDs to light up , correct ? I though I have always tested code by just making sure the LEDs were lighting up when testing code. I am in a debate with a redditor who says I need physical IO connected to test the PLC IO.

This was great. I have one of these PLCs and didn't want to use the commons on the cards when I have more than enough room to use the external terminal blocks for common and power and then just feed it back into the card. Thanks Tim.

I am preparing for compact logix plc interview, without even seeing the compact logix plc 😑😑.
Hope this video helps me. I mentioned in my resume that i know compact logix plc. Lets see tomorrow...

God bless your family. I'm from Brazil.

What software do you use to draw up the schematics?

What is the cost of the trainer.

Never disappointed with your instructions Tim very good video.

Great video.

Thanks Tim, I really appreciate the efforts and time you spend to make these videos, this is very useful to watch.
Can you please tell me when can I use the four V terminals in the Input side and the four C terminals in the Output side ?

I have 3 Interviews This up coming week in Phoenix AZ. for Industrial Controls Technician.
Your training videos are EXCEPTIONAL in detail and theory. ALMOST every video you make.
I have to KNOW for the Interviews. THANK YOU for your research...Save my ass.

Why is FP plus and minus not internally jumped

What gage wire you do normally use for your PLC writing, is it single solid copper wire or twisted pair?

It was designed to have 2 separate power supplies and touches on this in the product manual

What does FP+ and FP- stand for? Great video!

Hi Tim, can you please tell me what are the terminals for FP- and FP+ when I am using AB Compactlogix 1769-L24ER QBFC1B? I am using com (DC IN) of this unit as FP-, but I don't know which terminal to use as FP+.

Very good learning experience in wiring. Can you make Video about the remote I/O connections in compact logix using Ethernet communications.

Hi Tim What is the full form of fp+ and Fp- ?

Hi Tim,
The I/O light on the PLC is flashing and also show an "I/O not connected" on the software. I powered up the FP + and - and still no change. Is this still a wiring issue? This is a new PLC.

Good work brother

Hi Tim,
Suggestion for the "power jumpers " make some from solid wire, that way are pre made and it can clean up the layout. Makes troubleshooting easier .

What software do you use to create your wiring diagrams?

hey Tim, many thanks for this awesome series, I have asked you a question in other video, I got an issue with my PLC (compactlogix l30erm) a major error code 3 type 16 I/O module connection Error, I cleared the error everything got back to the normal for one day, on the next day I got the same error what should I do before I say I/O module is damaged? you advice please.

salute to the guy who is playing game in the background haahha :)

Great video Tim, many thanks. Hope you'll keep doing this, very helpful.

I have this Trainer TW CONTROLS TRN-ICP-RA5000-AIO, but mistakenly overwritten the original PLC Program. Can you provide a link to download it.

TIM;
great video.

do you have any videos on how to surge protect and how to isolate inputs and outputs

You put one wire on fp - for button 1 how are the other switches using it ?
