ControlLogix Workstation (Level 2) - ControlLogix Fundamentals and Troubleshooting / Programming Curriculum and Workstation
After completing this course, students should have a solid understanding of ControlLogix programmable logic controllers. Topics range from understanding control systems to troubleshooting a ControlLogix programmable logic controller.
As students learn about ControlLogix controllers and components, hands-on exercises will allow students to practice how to:
- Identify and locate the components of a programmable control system
- Download programs to a ControlLogix controller
- Develop troubleshooting skills needed to assess abnormal conditions in a working system
Engaging student materials, classroom discussions, lab exercises, and supplemental videos, podcasts, web links, and demonstrations, combine to give students a highly interactive classroom experience. The variety of learning resources and integrated activities in this class will give students a solid troubleshooting foundation and prepare them for more advanced automation-related courses.
