PLCs (Programmable Logic Controllers) 500 or 5000 Series Training

2 Day, 3 Day or 4 Day Program

Increase Uptime and Productivity with PLC Training

The PLCs (Programmable Logic Controllers) 500 or 5000 Series Training is designed for electricians, technicians and engineers that have little or no experience with programmable automation controllers (PAC). It is also suitable for technical personnel with experience using controllers other than Allen Bradley as well as those that need a refresher. The course starts at the most fundamental level with PACs and progresses with each additional Lecture/Lab combination.

The primary hardware platform used in this course will be CompactLogix with RSLogix5000 programming software. With the expansive range of concepts to cover with the Logix Engine, any discussion of older hardware platforms(RSLogix500/PLC) will be incidental in clarifying the 5000 Logix Engine.
