[@Mooe2]

you're the best please we need extra applications for siemens PLC

[@TimWilborne]

We're working on building out a Siemens plus programming series

[@otabektillavayev3309]

Thank you brather

[@TimWilborne]

You are welcome.

[@carloscontreras4707]

im surprised that you dont need to feed the plc in the first 3 points where the 24v goes in, on top where the inputs are

[@TimWilborne]

😁

[@SaddamHossain-oq6ci]

Great jobs

[@TimWilborne]

Thank you

[@amandatoledo4759]

Thank you for the super helpful video! What power supply do you use for your trainers? I have a bulky benchtop power supply, and I've been searching for a power supply like yours that I can plug directly into a wall socket.

[@TimWilborne]

It is by Mean Well. The main thing to look for is that it is a class 2 power supply. That particular one is 60 watts.

[@dennisrubio2375]

[@TimWilborne]

If these initial videos do well then we will.

[@carloscontreras4707]

I have just wired my siemens 1214 in this way but nothing is happening i hope is because is not the same device, but they are very similar dough

[@mrhnsn]

Why unlisted? Great video! Would love to see the programming video!

[@TimWilborne]

You stumbled across one of the series that we are developing right now so it isn't public but you can find some of them here. The first batch should be finished in a few months.

[@12mahottel]

Tim, you are going to make an entire series on Siemens?

[@TimWilborne]

@@12mahottel It depends on how popular these initial videos are

[@mingovazquez704]

Tim that is I been waiting siemens videos thanks!!

[@faridrh1]

Great video, It seems your plc is the relay type output, isn't it?

[@TimWilborne]

No, they are sourcing outputs. Check out around 2:50 of the video.

[@rajanbhatt5633]

See this video as in detail. Do the connection loop in video so we can understand. Sinking is for negative connection or sourcing for position connection??? Discribe this in detail in video. How??

[@TimWilborne]

Here you go!
