Discover a unified approach to developing and troubleshooting Allen-Bradley–based automation. In the first part of the course, focus on the Allen-Bradley integration/development tools: IAR Integrated Architecture Builder, Motion Analyzer software and RAISE software and testing tools. Learn the ladder logic handler for debugging purposes, and how to set up the FactoryTalk View Studio for Alarm and Trend. In the second part of the course, develop automation starting from a design requirement, using the Allen-Bradley tools and systematic approach and a variety of subsystems.
In this course you will be able to:
• Select the automation components, servo motors, encoders, gearbox, sensors, HMI, and Network for the Application using Allen Bradley Web-based Software
• Lay out the Automation panel and the required protection according to CSA standard
• Learn different techniques to minimize EMI
• Describe the pneumatic (SMC), and hydraulic (control valves)
• Integrate other PLC families with Allen Bradley family (G&L; Omron; Siemens; Mitsubishi; Modicon; Telemecanique)
• Use LAB-VIEW for automation, and remote SCADA supervisory control
• Test/troubleshoot techniques for automation; and
• Discuss OSHA and safety requirements.
