ETS1542 — INTRODUCTION TO PLCS: 3 Credits, 3 Hours
(Spring) This course covers fundamental ladder logic, programmable logic controller (PLC) theory and application, and design and troubleshooting of PLC-based systems using 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 replication of PLC functions is created in the lab with LogixPro Allen Bradley emulation software and virtual PLC components.
