Serial Communication Error Checking Methods and Algorithms

Serial communication error checking methods and algorithms are parity bits, checksum, and cyclic redundancy checks for safe data transfer.

Control loops are the building blocks of control systems and come in various configurations such as open, closed, cascade, feedforward, ratio.

The components of a PID controller – Proportional (P), Integral (I), and Derivative (D) each have distinct characteristics and applications.

In the PLC and DCS, the selection between Hardwired I/O and Serial I/O is very critical due real-time nature of these in industrial systems.

Today in this article we will learn most commonly used technologies i.e. PLC, DCS, RTU, SCADA, and PAC and their basics.

A signal isolator is an electronic device used to separate or isolate one electrical signal from another in a control system.

In this post, we will learn the difference between continuous process and batch process control with PLC and control systems.

Learn how to design a motor faceplate in SCADA or HMI graphics. These SCADA tutorials help you to optimize the PLC projects.

A floating license can be used on different computers but only up to the number of licenses purchased with user management.

AI, AO, DI, and DO refer to the types of input and output signals handled by control and monitoring devices such as PLC, DCS, DAQ.
