Course Description

 

The PLC Technician II Certificate program introduces the theory behind Programmable Logic Controllers, while maintaining an emphasis on the application of PLCs in plant and manufacturing systems. It provides a more advanced study of PLCs in manufacturing including DCS & SCADA systems.

The PLCLogix 5000 simulator integrated within in the program emulates the Studio 5000/Rockwell 5000 series PLC control software and features 3D simulation and advanced programming. It includes approximately 250 pre-built lab projects; including 50 lab projects presented in 10 “real world” 3D PLC application environments. PLCLogix 5000 allows you to create ladder logic programs, see a program’s operation using a simulator and control the operation of the program from within this interactive environment. It replaces the PLC ladder rung editor and all the electrical components that have, until now, been required to learn PLC programming and operation.

The PLCLogix 5000 simulator incorporates a “Tag” based addressing system employed by 5000 series Control Logix controllers. The Tag Editor and Tag Monitor interfaces allow for program variables, instruction elements as well as physical I/O to be not only edited and monitored as required by real world applications but also to be grouped and organized as desired, using tags and aliases.

Schedule: Continuous enrollment - Enroll any time that's convenient to you and work at your own pace. Because of the course's flexible delivery format, students can enroll in the program at any time during the year and complete the home study training on your own terms. We provide you with the tutorial and technical support but leave the scheduling of studying and completion time up to you. The average completion time for the PLC Technician II Certificate is 32 weeks of part-time study, however previous electronics experience, education and time spent per week may reduce that time significantly.
