Attendees will receive hands-on training in programming PLC trainers using ladder logic to control common processes.  Using custom built PLC trainers they will write control programs for sample processes using relay ladder logic, and download the program to a PLC.  The PLC trainers provide a variety of inputs and outputs that can be manipulated to simulate many processes for development and testing purposes.

At the end of the course, the attendees should be able to:

*   Create programs with analog inputs and outputs.

The cost for the class is $75 for ISA Members and $125 for Non-members.
