Description: An introduction to Programmable Logic
Controls (PLCs). This industrial training video will introduce
the viewer to the different kinds of Allen Bradley cable, non-OEM
PLC cable and PLC communication protocols.
Introduction to AB PLC Cables and Drivers is the first in a
series of training videos designed to teach anyone what a PLC is
and how to you effectively operate one. This first PLC training video
covers the different types of PLCs, the cables types needed to
operate the PLC, the PLC communication protocols - drivers and
related areas of the RSLinks software.
Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs) are devices that use
ladder logic to control anything from industrial machines in a
factory to traffic lights in your town. They are an integral part
to any facility in the world, and therefore having a better
understanding of how they work and how to use them is beneficial
to everyone.
The first section goes over the three main categories of PLCs;
the regular (PLC5), small (SLC 500 system) and micro (Micrologix).
You will learn what types of PLC's fit into each category. The
next section deals with the different types of cables required to
connect a PLC to a computer. You will also introduced to the
different types of PLC communication protocols and drivers
required for each cable option. There is even a section that will
show you how to save money by using low cost non-OEM cables
instead of their more expensive counterparts. Another section goes
over how to configure and use RSLogix; which is the program that
allows you to view and configure the ladder logic that controls
the PLC.
There are plenty of Allen Bradley training courses that will
teach you how to work with a PLC but there are very few that will
teach real-world and application knowledge in a professional and
enjoyable way that won't break the bank. This is the only video on
the market that will even show you how to use third party cables
to save money and downtime. Watch the preview video above today
and learn more about the exciting training techniques utilized by
Business Industrial Network.
