In today’s video we will move on to the next step in our panel fabrication series. If you haven't already seen the other videos is this series, we encourage to go back and watch from the beginning of the series, so that you might better understand the entire process.
The step in which we will focus on today is the first part of the planning phase of the build. Which is determining all the IO requirements for panel. This includes going over any engineering plans, and looking at each piece of equipment and determining the signals that need to be monitored or controlled on that equipment.
Then we need to determine what type of signals they will actually be, for example… possibly digital inputs, or analog inputs to name just a few. At that point, once the signals have been identified, we can begin to understand some of the hardware that will be needed for this build. So let’s get started….
As you can see, there is a lot that can go into determining the IO requirements of your panel. It is important to take your time and get it right. In our next video, we will continue to talk more about the planning phase, but will focus on some hardware selection based of the the IO information we we able to find. So make sure to join us next time, as we continue the build.
