Description
Summary:In industry, the control apparatus and instruments at the field level use a PLC in general. Unfortunately, PLC is a proprietary or copyright of a multinational corporation, which make their costs relatively expensive. Alternative controllers can be implemented based on RTU microcontrollers which are of low costs, low power consumption but have high reliability and can be applied in a variety of plants. In this research, RTU based on a microcontroller, 32-bit ARM Cortex XMC 4500, has been developed and applied as a controller of water distribution simulator. This RTU has 8 inputs and 6 outputs digital, 3 inputs and 2 outputs analog. The result shows that the RTU works properly in accordance to the specifications that had been predetermined. This has been proven by the proper functioning of all digital and analog IO modules, serial communication modules and power supply modules.
