Application Examples of Ladder Sequence Program

Alarm Sequence Control Circuits Can be Reduced
The ladder sequence program is built in the UTAdvanced as standard. The ladder sequence function enables monitoring and controlling peripheral devices such as relays, thus making it possible to reduce costs.

[Conventional]
Alarm action was built by a sequence control circuit (relay, timer, etc.) outside of the controller.

arrow [UTAdvanced]
Alarm action is built by the ladder sequence program inside the UTAdvanced, thus making it possible to reduce costs.

Alarm Sequence Control Circuits can be Reduced

Example: Alarm annunciator

Host System Load is Reduced

[Conventional]
Action
Various types of analog data were captured into the host system (PLC, etc.) and calculated, and the results were processed by the field controller for control via a command.

[UTAdvanced]
Merit
The UTAdvanced with up to 4 analog inputs* enables various types of analog data to be captured directly into the controller and calculated by the ladder program, thus reducing the system-building load of the host.

Coordinated Operation

In coordinated operation, a single UTAdvanced termperature controller is used as a master controller and multiple UTAdvanced or other UTAdvanced digital indicating controllers as slave controllers.
