Lewellyn: PLC: PLC Training with RSLogix Software Program

Automation Training

Hands-On PLC Troubleshooting, Maintenance, & Programming Using RSLogix 500 Software
(printable outline)

The leader in PLC applications in the United States is Allen Bradley. We utilize SLC 5/02 processors and RSLogix™ software in our hands-on programming section. The student is first introduced to the common screens of both RSLogix™ and RSLinx™. Once the student is familiar with the common screens the class advances to entering simple programs, monitoring these simple programs, and modifying/editing the existing programs. As the program progresses the labs become more complex. The students are encouraged to work at their own pace while being assisted by the instructor. The students are shown how to recover from a power failure, upload and download programs, and set up reporting for troubleshooting when the need arises.
