EET 239 — Advanced PLCs
This course will expand students knowledge of programmable logic controllers from stand-alone use to being an integral part in a larger automated manufacturing system. Students will learn how to connect and program Contrologix 5000 PLCs to monitor and control various components in a system and then learn how to network multiple PLCs into an integrated system. Emphasis will be on using analog devices. Course will continue with the introduction of using PanelView and other HMI devices and then work with the PLC and HMI software packages to build a complete working machine control system.
