PLC Programming | RSLogix 500 Basic + Advanced

PLC programming from scratch training class by a controls engineer equipped with PLC systems – Allen Bradley RSLogix 500

What you’ll learn:
PLC Programming with RSLogix 500 software.
Ethernet and Serial Comm

Requirements
No.

Description
In this class, you will learn absolutely everything necessary to land a job as an entry level PLC technician (engineer, etc.).

We will cover basic topics such as what a PLC is used for, how it is able to receive and process Inputs & Outputs. We will take a much deeper dive with hands on labs and practice sessions during which I will give you specific real world scenarios to work with and give you tips and common pitfalls. These lessons are designed to strengthen your knowledge of PLCs and give you an edge during interviews.

At the end of each section, you will face a quiz which will allow you to test yourself on the material you have learned before moving to the next section. As some one who has administered interviews to PLC technicians, these questions are crucial in making sure that you’ve understood the material presented.

What are the requirements for the class?

You don’t need any hardware or software to follow the lectures, however, it is highly recommended to get some practice before going into an interview. If that’s not possible, I would advise spending some time working with an emulator and browsing through data sheets and manuals which will be presented to you in the course.

What can I expect from this class?

The main objective of this course is to get you job-ready by the time you finish the last lecture.

You will have a good understanding of what a PLC does, how it does it as well as what the outcomes of those actions are.

You will be comfortable creating basic ladder logic programs and troubleshoot complex existing ones.

You will be able to create simple Human Machine Interface (HMI) screens and controlling them via a PLC.

You will have a good understanding of manufacturing systems as a whole.
