ET 420 GU PLC a Programmable Language Controller Discussion

 

I’m working on a computer science discussion question and need an explanation and answer to help me learn.

Discussion 1:

Operation of a PLC

Describe the operation of a Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) system and mention three advantages over relay systems.

Discussion 2:

Application of PLC Operation

Find a specific application of a PLC-based system in an article or site on the internet. You should explain the basic operation of the PLC in the application. For instance, saying that a PLC can be used in an elevator system is not sufficient. You may also post a link to a YouTube video with a description of the use in that particular application. If you use PLCs in your work, please describe the specific application and the inputs and outputs and operation.
