Users will learn how to operate, program, and troubleshoot PLCs that interface with many different types of applications, including electro-pneumatics; variable and constant speed motor control; digital and PID temperature control; variable frequency drives; smart sensors; process control; motion control; and I/O Link communications.
This tabletop system provides hands-on experience with real-world components, including three different types of Allen-Bradley PLCs (ControlLogix, CompactLogix Modular, and CompactLogix); distributed I/O using Ethernet/IP communications with industrial managed switches; smart sensors; smart motor drives; intelligent interface terminals; wireless Ethernet communications; cyber security modules; data analytics software; and process control applications.
The Smart Controls Troubleshooting Workstation has the qualities of a real-world machine with relay-controlled start/stop power station, terminal strip I/O test points, operator station, and machine automation station.
Users study various applications with live devices by plugging in one or more of the many modular application panels available. Each application panel models an actual machine system, such as electro-pneumatic actuator, electric motor, analog devices, and BCD/LED display. Application panels are even available for interfacing external devices such as robots, conveyors, and process control systems.
Modular application panels remove easily to quickly change applications and expand the system applications. Control and communication devices readily attached to DIN rail mounts to expand the system controls.
Likewise, applications and control devices attach with individual quick disconnect cables to allow students to quickly mix and match and create new control schemes. Users waste no time performing laborious wiring. Plus, multiple operator stations and multiple human machine interface options permit multiple students to use the system at the same time. It is two stations in one.
The Smart Controls Troubleshooting Workstation also features Amatrol’s comprehensive eLearning curriculum, which includes engaging content and hands-on skills on topics such as: PLC troubleshooting; basic to advanced PLC programming; PLC configuration; analog I/O and PID control; variable speed DC motor control; AC VFD control; motion control (servo); math and data instructions; distributed I/O; Ethernet/IP communications; managed Ethernet switches; IIoT Smart Sensors with I/O Link; process control; electronic operator interfaces (HMI); wireless Ethernet communications; cyber security; and data analytics/cloud communications.
Also built-in is Amatrol’s exclusive FaultPro computer-based fault insertion software, which allows instructors to automatically insert faults and track student troubleshooting efforts. For example, the Smart Controls Troubleshooting Workstation with FaultPro allows users to learn how to quickly find and correct 62 different faults. FaultPro also allows users to avoid damage to the equipment that is normally associated with manual fault insertion. This makes the training equipment last longer and makes troubleshooting safer for the user and the instructo
