INSTRUCTOR LED TRAINING CONTINUATION OF PLC WIRING AND COMMISSIONING - PLC2 Overview: At the completion of this course, the participants will have the ability to “talk through” and debug/troubleshoot the PLC’s ladder logic using the Logix5000 soſtware in order to locate a “real,” faulty input or output device, replace it, and get the process back up and running. The suggested prerequisite for this course is the “Fundametnals of PLC Wiring and Commissioning - PLC1” course or prior experience. The participant will begin their training by wiring the actual input and output (I/O) devices such as photo-electric sensors, inductive proximity and selector switches, pushbuttons, and outputs such as contactors, indicator lamps, etc. to the PLC’s input/output module. This course serves as a solid foundation for those planning on taking Rockwell Automation Studio 5000/Control Logix courses. The participants actually wire their own PLC trainer! • A review of the PLC’s instruction-set including “real” and “simulated” I/O, troubleshooting tools that “toggle” and “force” I/O, Timer (TON, TOF, RTO) and Counter (CTU, CTD) circuits, special functions such as One-Shot (ONS), First Scan (S:FS), Set Bit if Zero/Negative (S:Z, S:N), Comparison instructions such as EQU, NEQ, GRT, LES, GEQ, LEQ, LIM, etc.,Math instructions including ADD, SUB, MUL, and DIV. These instructions were initially covered in the PLC Wiring and Commissioning - PLC1 course. • Ladder logic utilizing Jump (JMP) and Master Control Reset (MCR) instructions will be introduced along with the Jump to Subroutine (JSR) instruction. • To effectively troubleshoot a Logix5000 PLC-based system, one must know how the PLC’s Memory Structure is allocated throughout the ladder logic program. One and two dimension arrays are key areas to understand. We will accomplish this by troubleshooting ladder logic that includes instructions such as Fill File (FLL), Copy File (COP), and Average File (AVE). Other instructions include Bit Shiſt Right/Leſt (BSR)/(BSL), First-in-Fist-Out (FIFO) Load/Unload (LFL/LFU), and Masked Move (MVM). • Examples of Sequencer circuits involving the Sequencer’s various tables such as Array, Mask, and Output tables will be covered in detail. • Understanding how Indirect Addressing and its associated memory arrays are applied in a ladder logic program is critical in troubleshooting a PLC-based system. • One of the most powerful tools found in the Logix5000 soſtware is the Add-On Instruction. In order to troubleshoot these instructions, one must know how to interpret their Definition Table, which consists of various “tagged” parameters and the ladder logic used to develop the Add-On Instruction. Therefore, each participant will create and troubleshoot several Add-On Instructions. • Numerous hands-on labs utilizing troubleshooting skills are included in all of the above subject matter in order to reinforce the lecture material.
