This course (only ten dollars on PLC Dojo) is designed to equip the novice with no prior PLC programming experience with the basic tools necessary to create a complete PLC program using ladder logic common to most current platforms.
Using the Rockwell software RSLogix 500 and FactoryTalk View Studio, we will be covering such topics as general controls, digital and analog IO, ladder logic programming, alarm / notification handling, HMI, emulation, best practices and more.
In the end, we will go through an entire, working PLC program and HMI line by line to solidify comprehension of the learning objectives.
What's covered in each of the five PLC courses I teach here and on my own PLC Dojo site?
This course, (PLC Fundamentals) teaches you how to program with the focus on ladder logic, which is the most popular PLC programming language. The goal is to teach you everything you need to know to make a PLC do what you want it to do. You are also given all the software necessary to both CREATE and RUN your own programs live - right on your own computer. For some people, that's all they really need.
But for the people who want to really master PLC programming, they have the option of continuing into the advanced material with me.
Applied Logic (Level 2) forces you to take what you've learned and solve problem after progressively harder problem unassisted. You get a spec and are told simply: "Make it work, and don't progress until you have." After, you get to watch me solve each one as well. By the end, you don't just know how to program - you are a PROGRAMMER.
Process Visualization (Level 3) gives you both knowledge and experience in FIVE different HMI / SCADA development environments. By the end, you've created several COMPLETE visualization (screen) projects that you can actually run on your own computer (and SHOW PEOPLE in an interview) with no additional hardware.
IEC Paradigms (Level 4) is only for the heavyweights. This course teaches you how to program using all five IEC programming languages (plus one more) in multiple environments. There are projects as well, so by the end, you have seen it all and DONE it all as well. There won't be anything anybody can show you that you won't already be familiar with.
TIA Portal Master Project (Level 5) is the culmination of everything. In that course, you'll program an entire power plant using all five PLC programming languages (in PARALLEL!) with a full HMI. It's a massive and complex project that really showcases your talents in an interview!
Dr. Aadam is an interventional gastroenterologist who
possesses specialized expertise in gastrointestinal oncology, as well as
complex pancreas and biliary disorders. He is an integral member of a
multi-disciplinary team that incorporates the latest research and
state-of-the-art technology into a patient-centered comprehensive care plan.
Dr. Aadam is actively engaged in clinical research and has been invited to
present his work at several national conferences. He has undergone additional training
to perform advanced endoscopic procedures, including endoscopic ultrasound
(EUS), ERCP, and stent placement within the gastrointestinal tract. Currently,
he is leading the initiative in endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD), which
allows for the removal of early cancers in the gastrointestinal tract using a
flexible endoscope as an alternative to invasive surgery in certain situations.
In the classroom, it is imperative to create a cooperative
community that models the importance of mutual respect and cooperation among
all community members. As an educator, I am skilled in adapting to students'
diverse learning styles to ensure that each student is provided with an
equitable opportunity to learn and succeed.
