- čas přidán 24. 03. 2017
- In this lesson we'll define the make, break, and output enable instructions common to most PLCs as well as differentiate between electrical continuity as required by traditional hardwired relay based ladder logic and logical continuity as required by most PLCs. Pay attention to this lecture as it establishes fundamental ground rules about common PLC program instructions that, if misinterpreted, can be disastrous. (Full Lecture)

The 8 states considered from 21:10 are very simple if you put it in a written table and mark the columns according to their "Normal" "Deactivated" or "Activated" states. What must upset first timer electricians is that they probably don't get taught or don't have an inclination to learn about simple digital electronic switching. One would think it should be a compulsory part of an electrician's study syllabus.
When I see this, I think truth tables.
True dat. (no pun intended) I've got some older lectures on digital at the "cgcclive" channel. The break instruction can be thought of as negation.
Thanks, Jim!
Indeed. It's trivial but yet referred to as something that "will blow your mind". No, really, it won't. It's just an
IF switch 1 input=0
THEN switch 1 output=1
What the hell is so complicated about that?
In first year they teach physical relay logic for essentially the entire practical course. In third year they give us a few days of PLC. It's bass backwards. These videos are brilliant.
Hallelujah!! I knew he was out there somewhere, the guy who can ACTUALLY explain this in a logical and concise manner... you are THAT guy. No unnecessary rambling!! Thank you!!!
I'm an electrician just jumping into the automation/controls side of things and here teaching myself how to program when work is slow. Thank you so much for providing such well explained classes on YT for free. Definitely have to mentally separate NC/NO and XIO/XIC! (which reminds me of my instructor as an apprentice making us state "The common is not the neutral." over and over again.)
I'm so happy for the first time in my life to start learning about PLC's . Thanks !!!!!!!!!! :)
Jim, your presentation of basic PLC programming is so crisp and articulate, right to the point. Simply genius! God Bless you!
Holy smokes! This has got to be THE BEST lecture introducing PLCs. Definitely will "put it in my pipe and smoke it!"
So a make makes sense and a break breaks my brain. Perfect naming convention.
I taught at a community college....primarily hydraulics and pneumatics. I'm now retired and I still check out your videos. Thanks for being such a dedicated instructor. I really appreciate it! Simply great, no doubt!
I started out as an electrician in a factory and converted old manual operated hydraulic and pneumatic machines into plc electrical operated automatic ones! I was 17 at the time!! 😲
I appreciate your clarity of instruction both visually and audibly, thank you very much!
I want to appreciate the amount to patience and work you put into this, its tedious sometimes but it really helps us inthe log run!
I just started learning PLC and only have view a few videos. This video is great! I love the way how important it is to Jim. Someone like this are the ones you want to learn from. Detail, detail, detail...you have to be detail to be good.
I'm an industrial compressor technician and I routinely have to wire and rewire control boards. I did not know I was using ladder logic until I watched your video (several times). I just purchased a plc and several modules with the intent of training myself on how to program them. Your video is clear and concise with clear and easily understood illustrations. Thank you.
Thanks for this explanation!!! This was the easiest way to understand the XIO/XIC instructions I have ever heard!!!!!!!
I have never seen a good explanation about Plc like this lesson did. Thank you very much.
Mr. Patel: THanks a million, brother.
Amazing video. All my doubts are cleared. These are basics that you can't go on learning more complicated application programs without understanding this simple make, break concept.
Really Helped watching a second time for those who are lost you are not alone. My tip is watch other videos after this then come back and watch for a second time!
I know one thing for certain.....My brain, 100% goes into its deactivated state every time I think I understand this topic!
It’s simple and if you think it’s complicated then you make things complicated for yourself
It's like abc's
Thank you for this video i have refresh my plc programming subject way back 2008..
Thank you so much for this lecture.
MAN, thank you for making this so clear & understandable. I'm currently in an AAS program for Electrical Engineering Technology (currently making A's in all of my classes, largely because of the solid foundation in circuit analysis that this channel gave me), and I take PLC's next semester, before graduating Spring of 2023. I think I was always a bit intimidated about taking PLC's, because I always knew that it was one of the final classes I would take, and I think I was just afraid somehow that there would be a sudden difficulty spike from one section to the next, and largely thanks to the foundation that I found on this channel, I don't think that'll be the case. I'm also lucky to be in a program that makes construction of logic-based circuits really intuitive as well, and I've been able to get a lot of lab practice with those using just simple breadboard kits and various IC's and other electronics components. Anyways, thanks again, and this content is really stellar for someone who's just learning & wants to get a solid foundation.
Very nice. Please tell your classmates about this resource!
Hope you go to University.. and take real courses.. I used to be As in college.. turn out into D at university..
It's so educational and easy to understand , compared to my previous physical training
Thanks you so much.
I didn't understand this problem before; thanks to you, i understood this problem.
Thank You so much!!! I struggled a freaking lot with this mechanical vs logical concept, you made it much clearer now ! I should have found your channel sooner!
Really good video, clear concepts and examples. Worth watching it whole!
Man this has helped me tremendously! You break things down so easy I always run to your Channel when I don’t understand a topic👍🏼
Awesomely explained. 30 minutes of my life was worth it.
Grow up it was crap
ur great. i came for EXACTLY this video with ALL of the tone and ALL of the sentiments and the driving it in my head. I can't learn this the other way teachers would try to teach. You are talent. Thank you dearly and kindly.
Great video - i know have 8 holes pounded into my head. Thanks so much!
That intro is epic
Excellent mix of knowledge, good approach, and a refreshingly world weary attitude to foolishness and students who need to wake up, that doesn't quite tip over into cynicism. You are the coolest!
perfect instructor with drawings , well done , thanks
Thanks for sharing idea....full support❤💙💚💛💜
Great video, i'm sure you managed to get the info into a few thick skulls
Awesome info I'm just getting into wiring and dealing with plcs and your videos make it very understandable and with making it visual makes it even better.
Outstanding!!! Thank you so much for the time you put into this!
thankyou so much for this video jim ,im working as maitenance ,and i have to deal whith plc things thiz is very helpfull....
Great job.
Very useful information and excellent explanation. Thank you very much.

More GOLD. Onto the next one 👍
well put introduction to PLC
Great content
I just put it in my pipe and smoked it! Thank you so much. Exactly what I needed.
Good explanation
You are the best of them all!!!
Amazing video, many thanks for your efforts and hardware teaching us valuable knowledge
God bless you and keep up the good works
Excellent explanation....
Very impressive
this presentation is a testament as to why unified standard system should be used with these things, instead of each branch using their own symbology
the -] [- and -]/[- in particular, when the thing could have been written as -] [- and -] [o-, which would instantly make much more sense for anyone being remotely familiar with symbols for logics in electronics
Sir
Yr video instructions on BASIC PLC PROGRAMMING IS outstanding. However due to the speed of yr country's speaking some times i missed a few points. However i will play the video to catch them again. For a long time i wanted to understand PLC and writing ladder diagram. In yr video u have emphasised many imp points to keep in mind. Yr pronounciation is clear.
Thanks

Another great video! Thanks!
Great video. Almost got shanked when I wanted 3.048 meters of EMT from the electrical supplier. Antiquated measurements still have a place....
Jim you are a M A S T E R
Excellent service
Good stuff
Great lectures and I appreciate every step. Thank you 👍
Great video. This is so confusing sometimes and I appreciate you dumbing it down for me. All of this terminology is driving me crazy, everything seems to mean the opposite of what it implies, or opposite of what it looks like in graphics. I went to a technical college that didn't explain this nearly as well as you are, good job and thank you!
Very nice! Do me a favor and click on an ad every once in awhile to keep the great Google in the sky appeased.
Found great basic concepts informations in this video.
God bless you.
Thanks
It's really wow 👏
I really can't thank you enough for this amazing lecture
Great lecture, thank you.
Thanks for the video Jim greetings from Mexico
Thank you for the video its clear and straight to the point
Stumbled on your page!! So informative!! Subbed for the education!

@@bigbadtech wow. You’re really doing wonders here by providing this information. Thank you.
Many thanks for your concise explanation
It was amazing, its very helpful to refresh my knowledge
You are great 🙌🏼
Great video.
I’ve been doing practice logic drawings NO:NC I come here for some tips now I gotta remember the complete opposite of what I thought I’d learned
Awesome teacher!
Thank you!!!! You are awsome!
Great great great video...
Thanks for doing this!
Thanks for sharing
awesome videos!
Osm sir I really thankful to u for make this video for me
This is the the best explanation .thankyou very much for such an effort and pls come up with more programming plc videos
Thanks a lot sir your explanation and depth of knowledge is outstanding 💐🙂👍
Great Help,Thanks^^
Very good video and very understandable also, thanx a lot
21 :00 I watched CZcams videos after videos day after dayand could understand what the hell XIO XIC really meant. You my friend have made this easy to comprehend. If I could I would pay you for the knowledge you have bestowed upon me. Thank you 🙏
Hi Jim nice lecture I was able to learn a lot from this thank you
This is a GREAT VIDEO
Wow, after years of not sinking in, finally, you drilled it home with the facts. To me its like a light switch that the light being on has nothing to do with the what position the switch is in (contacts open or closed), but the instruction you tell it, to be on or off. Thanks again for the no nonsense lecture. I must admit, the terminology is weird as shit, and sometimes means the opposite of what you think it does.
Yes you are right, but the truth is that they are using four types of contacts, two normally close and two normally open. For the first two normally close contact one will close if it receives a signal and will open if there is no signal and the other will remain open when there is signal and only open when there is no signal.
I'm just going to think of break as being like a not gate.
Man you're class!!! ❤️❤️
Very useful video, thank you for making it. You're a good teacher.
Just checked out your channel ... very nice!
Hi Jim, many thanks. Making the videos is not easy so you have my respect. I'm working through your videos. I am working on my first PLC program now, for a Click PLC from AutomationDirection. I've written interfaces to Wago PLCs before, but only by MODBUS, no programming the PLC. So this is all new to me. I appreciate that you said think of Make and Break instead of NO and NC. It actually took a while to figure that out. Still trying to sort out register/coil/input/holding/etc on this PLC. My program is working, but I just like to know for sure that I understand all details. I started with a panel PC with GPIO instead of a PLC, but that was a mistake because the GPIO pins are not reliably controlled and they glitch while restarting the computer. I also used an Anaheim Automation stepper motor controller and that's been a big pain too because of poor documentation and needing to relay signals between the PLC and controller via the panel PC requires a bunch of complicated concurrency programming (to also keep a camera and GUI working.) What I've learned is that the PLC is solid from the start and my next iteration will move the motor control to it as well. It's been a good lesson, going the route I did, because I know now why to use PLCs and how the extra cost is minimal compared to the headaches of integrating dissimilar hardware. Lesson learned, time for the next beating. :)
I see you have a video on contactors as well. I tore down a mill with a contactor... I had never encountered one before. I'm not embarrassed to admit it took hours to reverse engineer how that was working. And... in the end... the label on the contactor was wrong. The part was a Siemens, and the part number indicated the coil auxiliary contact (for seal-in) as NC but the labeling on the contactor said NO. Electrically, the part number on the part was wrong. My guess is that this was a rejected part bought cheap.
Have a Happy New Year!
very good instructor
Very good explain on electric hydraulic
Thanks very much sir, I am glad to be one of your students. But from what I can grabs from the lecture is that the hardware inside the plc or the contacts inside the plc are mosfet transistors. Because there are two classes of mosfets, those that when a signal voltage is present they close their contact allowing current to flow from the emitter to the drain. And those that when they are having a signal they instead open and allow no flow of current. And vis vesa.
Thanks again for your time.
The "emmiter" on a mosfet is called source.
Love it very strict open urs eyes no day drams in my video you thanks. Teaches now days are mess
great video sir! Thank you!
I recommend this video
Great job man thank you!
Nice explanation!
Good video! Thank you!
Muchas gracias por el esfuerzo.
De nada.
Great tutorial, thank you.
thx nice job
the best way to remember make and break instructions is to look "MAKE=Buffer" and "BREAK=NOT Gate". I took it this way and all my worries vanished.
This so cool!!
thanks Jim!!!
his voice reminds me of Matthew McConaughey and makes me wanna rewatch interstellar again. Great video btw
Matthew McKindaGay
Great, thanks
