ETS 1542 - Introduction to Programmable Logic Controllers


3 hours Lecture, 3 credits
Lower-Division College Credit
Prerequisites: Completion of Engineering Technology core requirements or permission of the Program Director
AA Elective: No
This course covers fundamental ladder logic, programmable controller theory and application techniques, and design and troubleshooting of PLC-based (Programmable Logic Controller) systems in classroom presentations, lab construction and redesign, simulation trainers, and multi-modal software learning labs. Basic instruction sets are presented and reinforced by computer-based training simulations. Hands-on replications of PLC functions are created in the lab with Rockwell/Allen Bradley and comparable PLC components.
