IMI 4020 - Programmable Logic Control II
Clock Hours: 60
Delivery Mode
on-ground
Prerequisites: IMI 4010
Course Description:
This course has three objectives: to familiarize the student to PLC hardware and the nomenclature of specific components; instruct the student in the discreet logic (relay ladder logic) used in PLC programming; and the function, use and programming of timers and counters. The student programs PLC’s to meet real-world applications found in industry. The student learns to use Rockwell Automation 500, 5000 and Automation Direct software on various types and sizes of PLC’s.
The student is instructed through textbook, workbook, and hands-on PLC labs based on real-world applications.
