Solution 4: Output section
- [Instructor] Now for the output section we will focus on the outputs as indicated by its name. Now for the output section we need to look back at the outputs inside the state diagram. Remember, that outputs are inside the circles. So the first output is the conveyor. And looking into the state diagram the conveyor is on in step one and step three. And remember that for the outputs only use a particular output one time in your program. And this is the first part of the output section. And then we go again to the state diagram and see step two, to check what outputs are currently on. In step two only the paint and the timer are on. Notice here that the paint and the timer are only on in step two, no other step require any of them. And this part gets added to the output section too in the ladder logic. Now back again to the state diagram, the conveyor in step three was already covered. Remember that we use the output only…
