单；③适应性好；④功能完善，接口功能强二、PLC的历史1968年，RichardE.Morley创造出了新一代工业控制装置可编程逻辑控制器(PLC),现在，PLC已经被广泛应用于工业领域，包括机械制造也、运输系统、化学过程设备、等许多其他领域。初期可编程控制器只是用一种类似于语言的软件逻辑于代替继电器硬件逻辑，并且使开发时间由6个月缩短到6天。虽然计算机控制技术已经产生，但是PLC控制因为它的高性能、成本低、并且对恶劣的环境有很强的适应能力而在工业控制的广泛应用中保持优势。而且，尽管硬件的价格在逐渐下跌，据估计，根据Frost和Sullivan对PLC市场的调查研究表明，每年销售硬件的价格要比销售PLC的价格（一千五百万）至少多出八十亿美元。PLC的创造者RichardE.Morley十分肯定的认为目前PLC市场是一个价值五十亿的工业虽然PLC广泛应用于工业控制中，PLC控制系统的程序依然和语法有关。和软件过程一样，PLC的软件设计也以同样的方式会遇到软件错误或危机。Morley在演讲中着重强调了这个方面。如果房子建造的像软件过程一样，那么仅仅一只啄木鸟就可以摧毁文明。特别的，PLC程序要解决的实际问题是消除软件错误和减少老式梯形逻辑语言的花费。尽管PLC的硬件成本在继续下降，但是在工业控制上减少梯形逻辑的扫描时间仍然是一个问题，以至于可以用到低耗时的PLC。一般来说，和其他领域相比生产PLC的周期要短很多。例如，在实践中，VISI设计是一种有效的计算机辅助设计。PLC不需要使用目前的以软件设计为基础软件工程方法论，因为PLC程序要求对软件和硬件搜都要考虑到。因此，软件设计越来越成为花费动力。在许多的工业设计工程中，多数人力分配给了控制系统设计和安装，并且他们被要求对PLC进行程序测试和错误排除。再者，PLC控制系统不适合设计对适应性和重构有越来越多要求的生产系统。一个更深入的问题是在大规模的工程中软件越来越复杂，促使要有一个系统化的设计方法论。主题的客观性是为PLC自动控制系统建立一个系统化的软件设计方法论。这个设计方法论包括以状态转换模型为基础的精确的描述，这个转台转换模型是自动控制系统的抽象系统。方法论还包括一个逐步的设计过程，并且要设置一个设计规则，这样才能为一个成功的设计提供导向和方法。这项研究的真正目的是找到一个减少控制软件发展过程的不稳定性的方法，也就是说，减少程序和调试时间以及他们的变化，以增强自动控制系统的适应性，并且通过调整软件使得软件可以再度使用。这样的目的是为了克服目前程序策略的不足之处，而目前的程序策略是以个人软件开发者的经验为基础的。三、现今的PLC从结构上分，PLC分为固定式和模块式两种。固定式PLC包括CPU板、I/O板、显示面板、内存块、电源等，这些元素组合成一个不可拆卸的整体。模块式PLC包括CPU模块、I/O模块、内存、电源模块、底板或机架，这些模块可以按照一定规则组合配置。在使用者看来，不必要详细分析CPU的内部电路，但对各部分的工作机制还是应有足够的理解。CPU的控制器控制CPU工作，由它读取指令、解释指令及执行指令。但工作节奏由震荡信号控制。运算器用于进行数字或逻辑运算，在控制器指挥下工作。寄存器参与运算，并存储运算的中间结果，它也是在控制器指挥下工作。CPU速度和内存容量是PLC的重要参数，它们决定着PLC的工作速度，IO数量及软件容量等，因此限制着控制规模。中央处理器（CPU）是PLC控制器的大脑。通常CPU本身就是一个微控制器。起先是8位微控制器例如8051，现在发展为16位和32位微控制器。你会发现大部分由日本制造商制造的PLC中是日立和Fujicu的微控制器，西门子的微控制器多应用在欧洲的PLC中，摩托罗拉生产的微控制器则独占美国市场。CPU同样关注通信，PLC控制器，操作程序的执行，监督记忆设置的输入和输出等部分的关联性。PLC使用系统存储器（现在大部分采用闪存技术了）用于过程控制系统。除了这个操作系统之外，它还包括一个由梯形图翻译成而进制形式的用户程序。快擦型存储器（FLASHmemory）的内容只有在改变用户程序的时候可以被改变。PLC控制器比快擦型存储器使用得更早，EPROM存储器比快擦型存储器也更早，快擦型存储器必须用紫外线（UV,Ultra-VioletRay）灯擦除，并在编程器上进行编程。由于快擦型存储器技术的应用，使得这个过程大大缩短了。在应用程序开发中，通过一个串行电缆可以对程序存储器进行重新编程。用户存储器被分成具有特殊功能的块。一部分存储器用来存储输入和输出状态。一个输入的实际状态存储状态存储在专用存储器位上，为“假者“0”每一个输入和输出在存储器中都有一个相应的位。另外一部分存储器用来存储用户程序中的变量的内容。例如，定时器值，或者记数器值存放在存储器的这个部分。PLC控制器可以通过计算机（通常方式）重新编程，但是也可以通过人工编程器9控制台）编程。实际上，这意味着，如果你有编程所需要的软件，早期PLC控制器可以通过计算机进行编程。今天的传输计算机是工厂自己对PLC控制器进行重新编程的理想设备。这对于工业企业来说是非常重要的。一旦系统修改结束，将正确的程序重新读入PLC控制器也是非常重要的。定期才查PLC中的程序是否改变是非常好的事情。这有助于避免车间发生危险情况（一些汽车制造商已经建立了通信网络，可以定期检查PLC中的程序，以保证运行的程序都是正确的）。几乎所有用于为PLC控制器编程的程序都拥有各种不同的选项，例如系统输入/输出（I/O线）的强制开关，程序实时跟踪以及图表验证。图表验证对于理解、定义失败和故障非常必要。程序员可以添加标记，书日和输出设备名称，以及对于查找错误或者对于系统维护很有用的注释。添加注释和标记可以使技术人员（不仅仅是开发人员）很快理解梯形图。注释和标记甚至还可以准确地引用零件号，
