An introduction to the field of industrial controls as it relates to computer control systems, process control and industrial networking. Covers the principles of control systems as applied to a production system to achieve automation. PLC’s will be covered as the mainstay of industrial computer control. Troubleshooting of production control systems are covered.
MAJOR COURSE LEARNING OBJECTIVES: Upon successful completion of this course the student will be expected to be proficient in the following skills:
- Identify the functional components of a digital control system.
- Write flowchart of a digital industrial control system.
- Identify the components of a digital AC control system.
- Write and develop a program for an AC control system.
- Define PLC using the NEMA definition of a PLC.
- Identify an assortment of input and output modules (digital and analog).
- Troubleshoot by using built-in software diagnostics (edit the PLC and demonstrate the operation of several software functions.)
- Troubleshoot by using standard hardware testing methods (multimeters and Scopes)
- Write software programs using standard ladder logic.
- Program a PLC to solve a variety of application problems.
- Diagnose problems placed by the instructor in PLC-based control applications.
