    Description
    This course covers advanced software and the practical skills necessary to program, communicate, and edit logic controls for an industrial touch screen HMI, including: creating and configuring dynamic push buttons, a multistate indicator, and numeric input and output objects. The course also covers the fundamentals of configuring as well as the operation of analog input and output device controls using a PLC. Students will determine parameter settings and scale data for analog input and output modules. Students will use Allen-Bradley communication protocol, EtherNet IP, and software to network remote I/O, and other Ethernet connected devices such as variable frequency drives (VFD).
