Abstract
This course cartridge for Introduction and Intermediate Programmable Logic Controller contains material for a non-credit course designed as an introduction to programmable logic controller systems. Participants learn what programmable logic controller systems are, how they work, and how they can be used to control various processes and machines. This course is taught in a hands-on environment, featuring the Allen-Bradley ControLogix and MicroLogix, and SLC systems. Even though the course utilizes Allen-Bradley products, the course covers topics that are universal to the use of PLC's in the field.
