Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) Course
October 27– October 31/2022 : Dubai
Introduction
This IACT course prepares the participants in programming, installation and maintenance of automation systems and their application. This training introduces the participants to the Allen Bradly Control Logix 1756 Controller 5571 and Compact Logix 1796L 33ER 5370 controller PLC hardware and software and will build skills in programming, installation, commissioning and fault diagnostic and Ethernet communication network. This training also provides programming techniques and instruction that will help the trainees in configuration. The course format is a combination of instruction and hands on exercises. After each procedure has been demonstrated, the trainees will be give opportunity to apply what they learned by programming ladder logic and testing the project with the PLC workstation.
