PLC Troubleshooting Tips: OTU, JSR, and MCR causing ill logic.

We just made a short visual walkthrough video for this OTU/JSR/MCR topic, plus added a couple of bonuses. Check it out at ▶️ https://t.co/pHOPRNGJ75

Environmental conditions can flip the standard "#PLC Physical Failure Probability" hierarchy on its head:

• Foundries ➡️ Metal dust on Backplanes.
• Machining ➡️ Fluids short Input cards.
• Wire Mfg. ➡️ High voltage spikes fry unprotected CPUs.

Control Panel Design TIP:

Extend the PLC communication port outside the panel and include a power outlet for the technician's laptop. But place both in a locked enclosure so only authorized personnel may access.

Amazon cloud down takes down Canvas and thousands of other companies and institutions. That is why I have been telling #educators and #instructors they should only use cloud services as a last resort. Because of reliability and security concerns.

The greater the difference between the stator magnetic field speed and the rotor speed (the ‘slip’) the more often the magnetic field cuts through the conductor and the greater the force generated on the conductor. #vocational #cet

An induction electric motor works when AC power is turned on. Each phase of the alternating current goes into motor windings positioned around the outer stator.

Operation of an induction electric motor. 6 of 7
In a motor, the rotor runs slower than the rotating
stator magnetic field. This means the magnetic field cuts the rotor conductors. The difference between the speed of the magnetic field and the speed of the rotor is called ‘slip’.

@beemerjean I talked about it with my 26 y.o. grandson who's a truck driver supporting 2 kids. We agree we need vocational and technical schooling paid by government for those NOT going to college. Fast food can still be done by kids in HS & students in college. It's a wise investment imo.
