Basic PLC and PAC Programming.
For the majority of industrial process applications, Programmable Logic Controllers and Programmable Automation Controllers are the backbones of industrial applications. Automation and robotics are distributed on the manufacturer's floor, or in a wide area e.g. oil industry. This course will focus on understanding the Programmable Logic Controllers and Programmable Automation Controllers requirements, programming, and implementation. The practical approach of the course is guaranteed by having students perform hands-on work on cutting-edge technology communication networks.
Note that we do not provide licenses for Rockwell software. However, Rockwell offers a free version of MicroLite (similar to RSLOGIX 500). For instructions on using the emulator, refer to the EMULATOR 500.PDF. Most exercises can be completed using this free software.
Here is the download link for MicroLite: https://compatibility.rockwellautomation.com/pages/search.aspx?crumb=117&q=RSLogix%20Emulate%20500%20for%20MicroLogix
