| COURSE DESCRIPTION |
|
Maintaining, troubleshooting, and programming a control system requires a thorough understanding of the system hardware and software. This course is designed to provide a fundamental understanding of the installation, configuration, layout, troubleshooting procedures, and maintenance procedures for the Allen-Bradley SLC-500 programmable controller and input/output systems. In addition, programming concepts for Contact, Coil, Timer, and Counter instructions are introduced. |
|
|
| COURSE OBJECTIVES | |
| • | Understand the major functional components of the Allen-Bradley SLC-500 programmable logic control system as it relates to your facility's installation. |
| • | Discuss design considerations for system architecture, processor selection, input/output module type selection, power supply selection, and communication system layout. |
| • | Study the capabilities and differences among the various SLC-500 processor modules. |
| • | Cover rules for chassis, processor, adapter, power supply, and input/output module placement. |
| • | Consider issues relevant when replacing existing controller, power supplies, chassis, and modules. |
| • | Determine the meaning of LED indicator lights and dip switch positions on processors, modules, power supplies, and chassis. |
| • | Discuss battery purpose, replacement procedures, and environmental considerations for disposal. |
| • | Know the differences in capabilities of local, extended local, remote, and ControlNet I/O systems. |
| • | Discuss field devices and signal types and levels pertaining to I/O module selection. |
| • | Understand the relationship between field devices, I/O modules, and I/O addressing. |
| • | Examine the differences and learn the concepts of 2, 1, and ½ slot addressing. |
| • | Become familiar with the memory layout and configuration of the SLC-500 processor, data table, memory map, program files, I/O image table, edit buffer, etc. |
| • | Design, build, and test control circuits involving Contact, Coil, Timer, Counter, and Compare instructions. |
| • | Know the difference between online and offline programming. |
| • | Document and organize your programs for easy future reference. |
| • | Upload and download existing programs to and from the personal computer and controller. |
| • | Use the programming software as a diagnostic and troubleshooting tool. |
| • | Isolate hardware and software problems from field device problems. |
| • | Use system diagnostics to identify and pinpoint faults in the system. |
| • | Develop a thorough understanding of and the safety issues related to Forcing in the SLC-500. |
| • | Discuss appropriate safety issues. (Is the circuit really off?) |
