Chapter Getting Started Guide Chapter 2 for HHT A–B Setting Up Your Equipment This chapter briefly describes SLC 500 controller styles, then shows you how to set up your equipment in preparation for the exercises in later chapters. Topics include: Controller Styles Setting up a Demo Unit Setting up a Field–Wired Controller...
Chapter 1 Setting Up Your Equipment Controller Styles The SLC 500 comes in two different styles: modular and fixed. These styles are shown below. The modular controller consists of a rack, power supply, processor (CPU), and Input/Output (I/O) modules. The fixed controller consists of a power supply, processor (CPU), and a fixed number of I/O contained in a single unit.
Chapter 1 Getting Started Guide Setting Up Your Equipment for HHT Setting Up a Demo Unit SLC 500 demo units are available with either a fixed controller or modular controller. This guide assumes you are using a modular controller demo unit for all the programming exercises.
Chapter 1 Setting Up Your Equipment Setting Up a Field–Wired The details of installing and wiring the controller and external input/output Controller devices are beyond the scope of this guide. If you are using a field–wired fixed or modular controller, refer to the Installation and Operation Manuals, Publication 1747–800 (fixed controllers) and 1747–804 (modular controllers), for information on installation and wiring of the controller and external input/output devices.

Chapter 1 Setting Up Your Equipment HHT Features Use the Hand–Held Terminal to configure the SLC 500 controller, enter/modify a user program, download/upload programs, monitor controller operation, test, and troubleshoot. The HHT has its own memory to store a program. You can use the HHT stand alone (for remote programming development with 1747–NP1 or NP2 power supply), point–to–point (one HHT to one controller), or on a DH–485 network (communicate with up to 31 nodes over...
Chapter 1 Getting Started Guide Setting Up Your Equipment for HHT HHT Powerup After you install the memory pak and battery, and plug in the cable, you can test operation of the HHT by powering up the controller (or plugging in the Wall–Mount or Global Desk Top power supply).
Chapter 1 Setting Up Your Equipment Data Entry Keys ( ...) These blue keys include numbers, letters, and symbols used for addresses, password, file numbers, and other data. The data you enter always appears on the prompt/data entry/error message area of the display. In general, you obtain the upper character of a key by pressing the [SHIFT] key first.
Chapter Getting Started Guide for HHT A–B Control Basics This chapter introduces you to basic concepts essential for understanding how the SLC 500 controller operates.

Chapter 2 Control Basics Program Files Program files contain controller information, the main control program, and any subroutine programs. The first three program files are required for each program. These are: File 0 This file stores the controller configuration and other system information. File 1 This file is reserved for internal controller use.
Chapter 2 Getting Started Guide Control Basics for HHT How External I/O Devices The figure below applies to a modular controller demo unit having an input Communicate with the module in slot 1 and an output module in slot 3. See page 1–2 for a diagram of the slot location.
Chapter 2 Control Basics Addressing External I/O As pointed out in the last section, external inputs and outputs are linked to the input data file and output data file of the program. Each status bit in these files has an address. You specify the appropriate address when you enter an instruction in your ladder program.

Chapter 2 Control Basics Ladder Logic Concepts As we mentioned earlier, the program files you create contain the program used for your controlling application. The programs are written in a programming language called Ladder Logic. This name is derived from its ladder–like appearance.
Chapter 2 Getting Started Guide Control Basics for HHT Logical Continuity During controller operation, the processor evaluates each rung, changing the status of instructions according to the logical continuity of rungs. More specifically, input instructions set up the conditions under which the processor will make an output instruction true or false.
