Hello.
I'm new at control automation, I'm here mainly to learn from others in order to use that knowledge for personal projects. I would like to know if somebody can share a complete guideline in how to wire and connect LVDT amplifiers to a PLC and same for directional valves 5/2 type. I'm attaching an assembly screenshot in order to let you know an idea of what I'm looking for.
Step 1) Actuator extends
Step 2) gripper closes
Step 3)LVDT detects distance and send information to PLC.

 

All the mechanical stuff is nice, but useless, because connecting electrical devices to a PLC requires information on the electrical specs.
