2. In the following figure identify and label the PLC Processing Module, Power Supply,

Input Module and Output Module.

3. Compare and contrast the performance characteristics of the Rockwell 1769-L20 CompactLogix

5320 controller and the Siemens Simatic S71200 CPU 1214C DC/DC/DC controller. Place youranswer following your lab summary in your report.

5. Complete the wiring diagrams for the input and output modules of the CompactLogix PLC

trainers using the table created above and by tracing theswitch and output wiring back to the

modules.Use the industry standard symbols provided. Be sure to draw the electrical symbol in

the switches normal state.Note for normally open switches the LED lights will go on andfor normally closed devices the light will go off. Record the PLC trainer used, the device

tag name and its corresponding physical address on the module. Also indicate the wirenumber on the figure. Use industry standard symbols. The name or tag for each input

and output is also shown below.
