The simplified tape recorder requires a PLC control for playback. The functions of the tape recorder can be integrated step by step. We recommend the following procedure:
First the control buttons: >, ||, STOP, then buttons: >> and <<, and, finally, buttons: |<< and >>|
7 sensors for detecting whether one of the seven buttons is pressed.
2 sensors for detecting whether the end of tape at the right or left is reached.
1 sensor for detecting whether the tape has a blank tape section.
2 actuators for switching on the motor resp. switching to wind.
1 actuator for performing a change in motor direction.
1 actuator for moving the sound head against the tape.
1 actuator for deactivating the two buttons (to next/preceding track).
1 actuator for deactivating the three buttons (Stop, Play, Pause).
