This course consists of two sub-courses:
- Fundamentals of PLC (Festo CPX-CEC-C1)
The objective of the program is to provide the participants with basic knowledge of the construction and operation of programmable logic controllers as well as to develop the ability to write simple programs and operate control systems. It is also to acquaint the participants with the application possibilities of using PLC. Codesys-tried and tested, globally introduced hardware-independent software from 3S-offers a Controller Development System according to the IEC 61131-3 with all defined programming languages independent of the hardware manufacturer. This course demystifies Codesys and gives participants confidence in using it.
- Electro-Pneumatic Automation with Omron PLC (CP1L/CP1E)
To provide the participants with a basic knowledge of the construction and principle operation of Omron CP1L/CP1E programmable logic controllers as well as to develop the ability to write simple programs and operate control system. It is also to acquaint the participants with the application possibilities of using PLC.
