Project: VMidas/Cimplicity Monitoring System Upgrade

CAC Programmed GE 90/30, Logicmaster Series 1 and Logicmaster Series 6 PLCs. Configure GCM+ (Enhanced Genius Bus) Modules to communicate with all PLCs on the network, including Series 1 and Series 6 PLC. Assign node addresses and write PLC code for 22 different machines. Write machine data collection logic that will be transferred to Master PLC. Write PLC logic that coordinates and sends data trough CMM module serial ports. This data will be collected by VMidas software and displayed on Cimplicity screens. Test all data collection and serial port logic, and support GE staff where needed.

Strict responsibility was given to maintaining, writing, formatting, and troubleshooting PLC code needed for the proper functionality and operation of the VMidas/Cimplicity Monitoring system. This system was designed to monitor production outputs, rejects, reports etc. GE laid out a specific ladder logic template, which was duplicated and added to all PLCs. In instances where the suggested template did not suffice, new code was created after careful evaluation. Global data was also to be laid out in an orderly fashion, but had to remain within the guidelines of a suggested template. Often in particular cases, research was conducted to determine and choose integration techniques needed for communication, between Series 1, Series 6, and GE 90/30 processors.
