How to control Fan from different locations with PLC (Zelio Smart Relay)

Many times we need to control a single electrical machine from different location, means we can make the Fan (for example) from three different locations.

We can do this with the help of PLC, Smart Relay. I am using Zelio Smart Relay, SR3B261B.

Open the ZelioSoft2 and select for Ladder programming.




Select the Input from the option and click on input and drag it to the input place as shown in the below picture.




Double click on Input-1 and give a name to it “Start-1”, and continue for other inputs, Input-2, Input-3, as well as shown in the below pictures.




Now, you have three Inputs, as Start-1, Start-2, and Start-3.




Now take three more inputs, Input-4, Input-5, and Input-6 and connect them in series mode.




Right click on the Input-4 and select “Normally closed” to make it NC. And do the same for other two inputs and give names to Inputs 4, 5, 6 as Close-1, 2, 3 respectively.



Select an Output from the Menu and put it to Coil. That is our output.




Select ‘Contact’ of output Q1 and drag it to the 004 in parallel to 003, for interlocking.




Now your program is ready. Now we will simulate this. For simulation click on the “S” button.




Now Run the Program by clicking on ‘Run’ icon.



Click on ‘Start-1’, however you can click on any Start button, Output will become ON (Red). It means programming is working fine.



To make the output OFF click on ‘Stop-1’, however, you can click on any Stop button, output should be OFF.


Since, our requirement is that Fan should be ON from any Start button and OFF by any Stop button.

You can check various combinations also.

How to Make Automatic Room Light Controller Without Microcontroller

You must have noticed in some offices or hotels, when nobody is in gallery or washroom, the light remains OFF but when somebody enters the place, light switches ON automatically. In this post I am going to teach you how to make this circuit. Before going ahead I would like to tell you that this is VERY EASY circuit. For this circuit the material we need is… PIR Motion sensor General Purpose PCB - 5x5 cm. Transistor 2222N – 1 No. Relay 5V – 1 No. 1K/0.250W – 2 Nos. 10K/0.250W – 1 No. IN4007 – 2 Nos. LED 3mm – 1 No. Connector – 4 Nos. Few wires. Relay Circuit Concept : We can use any relay of 12V, 24V, 5V etc. but we have to consider power supply or battery we will use. Since 5V power supply is easily available and 9V battery can also be used for 5V output (after using 7805 regulator if needed). So I am using 5V relay. PIR sensor has three terminals, One for 5Vdc Second for Gnd (0V). Third for ...

How to drive high voltage/current load by small voltage signal from a microcontroller?

Sometimes we need to control or drive a high voltage and heavy current load by a small voltage signal. For example, if you want to control water motor with your microcontroller output. We know that microcontroller gives only 5v output which is not sufficient to drive a heavy motor. This circuit, about which this post is, is very-very useful for electronics engineer and hobbyist. So pay attention! For this circuit the material we need is… General Purpose PCB - 5x5 cm. Transistor KN 2222A (TO-92) - 1 No. Relay 5V – 1 No. 1K/0.250W – 2 Nos. 10K/0.250W – 1 No. IN4007 – 2 Nos. LED 3mm – 1 No. Connector – 4 Nos. Few wires. Tools. Concept: Weak signal triggers the transistor and transistor acts as a switch for the relay. You can use any relay of 12V, 24V, 5V etc. but we have to consider power supply or battery we will use. Since 5V power supply is easily available and 9V battery can also be used for 5V output (after using 7805 regulator if needed)....

How to control digital output with serial monitor in Arduino

Hello Friends, in this blog we will be controlling digital output with serial monitor command. First let’s understand the working of serial monitor. Serial monitor in Arduino IDE is a tool which allows communication between the computer and Arduino board via a serial connection, normally we use USB cable for connection. What are the features of Serial Monitor? It shows the data sent from the Arduino board by using the functions like Serial.print() or Serial.println(). It allows to send text or numeric data to the Arduino board, which can be read by function like, Serial.read() or Serial.parseInt(), thereafter you can use this data for further analysis and action. We can use this tool for debugging and monitoring the function of the sketch. There is a procedure to use the serial monitor, below are the steps given. First initialize the serial communication in the sketch as given below. Normally baud rate is set 9600.  Void setup(){          Serial.begin(9600)...
