I'd like to start out and say Hello! I'm a dad of 3 and here to take advantage of my new job lab items. However, this is something that I have to learn off hours on my dime and when the fam is sleeping. I'm brand new to the site so go as rough as you want(I can handle any type of criticism). I just aquired a Direct Logic 205 - D2-09B-1 with the following slots filled(in order):
-DL260 CPU -D2-260 CPU
-D2-16ND3-2 (IN - 24VDC 20-28VDC 8mA)
-H2-ECOM100
-D2-16TD2-2 (OUT - 12-24VDC 10.2-26.4VDC 0.1A)
-F2-08AD-2 (IN - ANALOG 8CH)
-F2-08AD-1 (IN - ANALOG 8CH)
-F2-08AD-1 (IN - ANALOG 8CH)
-F2-08DA-2 (OUT - ANALOG 8CH)
-F2-08DA-1 (OUT - ANALOG 8CH 18-26.4VDC 80mA 4-20mA SNK-SRC)
I'm looking to just have some fun with this and feed a desire. I have some ideas as what I'd like to start with on this unit but my weakness right now is is understanding the voltage and some relays. I'd like to figure out how to set up or identify what I'd need to create action item one. Temperature Control:to be able to monitor and turn on/off or even speed control of a 12v 3.0a fan(s). Now I have read about drop in card module(F2-04THM - 4 CHANNEL THERMOCOUPLE) for the DL205. I'd like not to have to buy 2 of these but if its the cheapest way to make this work then that's chill. I'd to know if there is an alternate alternative,
I do have access to a good amount of things like 15v and 24v PSU's along with Terminal Blocks and SSR, even some Red Lion Controls and other similar related items. My goal is to make best use of my resources without having to drop to much coin into this learning project. Any and all suggestion/comments are greatly appreciated and look forward to some KNOWLEDGE!
