Automating with the SIMATIC S5-135U (Programmable Controllers)

The S5-135U is in the upper performance range of the SIMATIC S5 programmable controllers, and is used to implement industrial control systems for machine tools, manufacturing plants and industrial processes. The required open-loop and closed-loop control tasks are written in the STEP 5 programming-language, the assimilation and use of which is greatly simplified through the optional representation of these tasks as control system folwchart, ladder diagram or statement list. Description and use of this programming language is the main topic of this book. The book is directed to all users of SIMATIC programmable controllers. This includes not only beginners who want to familiarize themselves with the configuring of programmable controllers, but also experienced users, who will find a great deal of valuable information within its pages.
