how do i use this analog output and trigger a TRIAC or thyristor by this analog output ....

sir i m using rockwell RSlogix 1400 with analog module ...
i already get analog output from analog input in this plc...
now i wanna help in to.......... how do i use this analog output and trigger a TRIAC or thyristor by this analog output ....

You'll want to add limit logic that turns on and off a output coil tied to the physical output on the MicroLogix1400.

why use analog signal to trigger triac or SCR? do you know how they work?

that is what digital output will do just fine, simply add current limiting resistor.

It sounds like he wants to use an analog compare to turn on a bit. Maybe a classroom assignment?
