Building an Application Example
Using the tools provided in the toolbox, drag and drop the objects that form your application onto the workspace. Connect up the objects inputs
and outputs. Using the properties box, set the appropriate values. Run a simulation to prove the design; see simulation.
Once the design is complete, save your application; see saving design.
Frost Alarm
The above diagram shows a simple Data Builder application for a frost alarm. An outside temperature probe is connected to an analogue input
and this is compared to a frost set-point. If the temperature goes below this set point (using a less than block) the output of the less than block
goes on. This goes to the alarm block that has a delay of 10 minutes. If the signal is still on after the 10 minutes, the relay will be energised.
