Question 1

A ____ chart is a pictorial representation that explains the functioning of the control components from input to output.
A) sequence bar
B) input/output
C) block diagram
D) horizontal/vertical

Accepted Answer

A

Question 2

A timer is an example of a decision or logic device.

Accepted Answer

A timer is a logic device that generates a signal after a predetermined time interval.

Question 3

An example of an input device is a ____.
A) light
B) solenoid
C) motor
D) pyrometer

Accepted Answer

A pyrometer is an input device used to measure temperature, often from a distance or in environments where traditional thermometers cannot be used. It provides input to a system by measuring the temperature of an object or area.

Question 4

The decision makers are used to perform the work that must occur as the machine sequences through its operations.

Accepted Answer

The statement is incorrect. Decision makers are responsible for making important decisions and providing guidance to the machine operators, but they do not perform the actual work involved in the machine's operations.

Question 5

A sequence bar chart is created by listing the outputs and decision makers in rows at the ____________________ side of the chart.

Accepted Answer

The answer of A sequence bar chart is created by...

Question 6

An example of an output device is a ____.
A) timer
B) motor starter
C) relay
D) solenoid

Accepted Answer

An output device is a device that receives data from a computer and converts it into a form that can be used by the user. A solenoid is an output device that converts electrical energy into mechanical energy.

Question 7

As an input device, a pyrometer would provide information about pressure.

Accepted Answer

A pyrometer is a device used to measure high temperatures, typically in industrial processes. It does not provide information about pressure.

Question 8

Input devices gather ____________________ from the operator, the machine, or the process.

Accepted Answer

The answer of Input devices gather ____________________ from the operator,...

Question 9

As relay-based control systems became obsolete, ____ control systems took their place.
A) asynchronous motor
B) stepping motor
C) PLC based
D) solid-state

Accepted Answer

PLC (Programmable Logic Controller) based control systems replaced relay-based control systems as they offer more flexibility and easier programming options. Asynchronous motor and stepping motor are types of motors, not control systems. Solid-state may refer to various electronic devices and is not specific to control systems.

Question 10

In a sequence bar chart, the ____________________ devices are listed in the sequential order in which they are operated throughout the cycle.

Accepted Answer

The answer of In a sequence bar chart, the ____________________...
