A single rung of a ladder logic program is arranged with:
A. Input conditions connected from left to right, with the output at the far right.
B. Input conditions connected from right to left, with output at the far left.
C. The output in the center and the input conditions to the left and right of it.
D. All the input conditions in parallel and all output conditions in series.
A
The basic XOR function is:
A. If one or the other, but not both, inputs are 1, the output is 1.
B. If one or more inputs are 1, the output will be 1.
C. If one or more inputs are 1, the output is 0.
D. If one or more inputs are 0, the output is 1.
A
If you want to when one or both matching bits in two different words are ON, you would use the logic instruction. A. AND B. XOR C. OR D. NOT
C
The hexadecimal system consists of 16 digits including the numbers 0 through 9 and letters A through F.
True
programmable control is based on logic functions that are programmable and easily changed.
True
Inverting the output of an OR gate will result in creating a NOR gate.
True
