620-135 — Allen-Bradley PLCs and Ladder Logic
Introduces industrial standard components found in simple control circuits and the programmable logic controller (PLC). Students will learn about industrial selector switches, momentary pushbuttons, relays, contactors, timers, and indicators. Electrical control panel drawings and symbols will also be introduced. Students will use their knowledge of these devices along with relay logic diagrams to wire various circuits. Students will learn to wire digital and analog industrial devices to the PLC system. Students will learn to program and troubleshoot ladder logic programs using gate functions, timers, counters, math functions, compare instructions, jump functions, MCR instructions and subroutine applications.
