Understanding and Converting Mitsubishi Instructions

6 posts in this topic

Hi! I'm working on migrating a project from Mitsubishi PLC to Siemens and having a hard time to convert some instructions and logic. Anyone here can explain what are these instructions? (attached photo) Can someone help me convert them into simple logic so I can write them to TIA? Thanks!

I know but migrating to Siemens is what the plant owner wants, not mine. If I would be the one to decide then I'd stay with Mitsubishi. ;-)

The instructions are ofc in the manual. 

But DateRD is just reading the Date form the PLC into D0 D1 D2 etc.

 BLKRST is a block reset resetting M1100 and the next 500

M1000Z0 --- Z0 is an index on the device . (lets say Z0= 20 then M1000Z0 is actually M10020)

What is unclear about the other part ?

oh thank you, now it makes sense. i'd like to know if D0 and Z0 is just the same? I mean, are they just data registry? is the slash (/) on the rung is a NOT/Invert?

D0 and Z0 are both word devices but only Z can be used for indexing another device.

As for the slash you are correct
