Overview of Course 1 1-3

Task Definition for Course 1

The example procedures will refer to the following system.

A conveyor belt system that is driven by a three-phase motor is to start
up with a delay of 3 seconds after it has been switched on. The
conveyor belt is used for transporting packages. Once a certain
number of packages have been transported, the system should switch
off after a specified rundown time.

In our example, the number of packages to be transported is 5 and a
rundown time of 4 seconds is set. The system is switched on via S1. S2
switches off the system immediately and light barrier, S3, is used to
detect the number of packages that have already been transported.
