Course overview
As discussed, programming instruction sets are means of providing programmable logic controllers (PLC) with instructions for implementing control programs.
The PLC Programming Instructions, Part 1 training course focuses on the ladder logic and Boolean language structures that make up most of PLC programming. It describes the functions of the programming instructions commonly used in PLC programming. This online course explains:
- PLC language basics
- Ladder relay instructions programming
- Timers and counters
- Program/flow control
- Arithmetic instructions
PLC Programming Instructions, Part 1 is part of the Programmable Logic Controllers training series.
