CP1L-EL/EM: Fn05 Force Single Coil(Modbus/TCP) Function Block

Introduction

This article provides details for the use and application of the Fn05 Force Single Coil (Modbus/TCP) function block. Using this function block with the CP1L-E provides an easy means to control a single coil via Modbus.

This function block can be of particular use in PLC-based motion control applications often found in packaging machinery. To see a machine case study of a packaging application that uses Modbus and PLC-based motion control, visit the link below.
