Yao Zheng-zhi

Abstract

In this paper, we introduce Railroad Turnout Thaw System based on SIEMENS S7-400 Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) and Industrial Ethernet, as well as demands of control, configurations of hardware and software, methods of communication. In addition, MCGS configuration software with a standard Human-Machine Interface (HMI) is used to monitor the dynamical industrial process.
