Course Purpose:
This course is
designed as an introduction to programmable controller systems. You
will learn what programmable controller systems are, how they work,
and how they can be used to control various processes and machines. In
addition, you will receive a thorough introduction to RSLogix 5 or
RSLogix 500 software and learn how to interpret simple ladder logic.
The course is taught in a hands-on environment, featuring PLC-5® or
SLC 500™ system workstations. Where applicable, demonstrations are
included to facilitate the hands-on exercises that follow each lesson.
