How are the inputs assigned in the PLC described in this chapter?

What will be an ideal response?


In this example the on-off switch is assigned to input 1, the pressure switch is assigned to input 2, the auto terminal of the selector switch is assigned to input 4, the pump 1 terminal is assigned to input 3, and the pump 2 terminal is assigned to input 5. Note that one side of each input device has been connected to the hot or ungrounded power terminal. The other side of each input device is connected to the appropriate input terminal. PLCs do not provide power to the input or output terminals. The inputs and outputs must have power provided to them. The common (C) input terminal is connected to the neutral or grounded power conductor.
