Practice Hands-On PLC Troubleshooting and Programming

Portable PLC Troubleshooting includes an Allen-Bradley L16ER 5370 Processor & HMI Screen, two double-acting pneumatic cylinders, two control valves, a potentiometer, variable speed drive, external I/O interface, temperature control and an emergency stop button all within a portable learning system. Learners will use these components to perform troubleshooting skills on a variety of topics, such as thermostatic temperature control, variable speed motor control with feedback, and electro-pneumatic controls. Learners will also practice the programming and operation of industrial PLCs.

Highly Engaging Interactive Multimedia for PLC Skill-Building

Portable PLC Troubleshooting’s extensive multimedia curriculum begins with Programmable Controller Operation and Ethernet Communication and advances to topics such as analog input/output troubleshooting. By combining theoretical knowledge and hands-on skills, the student's comprehension and retention of troubleshooting systems is greatly enhanced.

Amatrol’s peerless interactive multimedia curriculum utilizes text with voiceovers, pictures, videos, stunning 3D animations, and interactive quizzes and reviews that engage learners in theoretical knowledge and concepts. This thorough, detailed curriculum begins with the basics and advances to complex concepts. Through partnerships with key industry leaders and leading educators, Amatrol developed the right balance of knowledge to train learners to work in their chosen field.

I/O Link Interface with Optional Smart Factory Capabilities

The 990-PABCL1F can be used with the Industry 4.0 Fundamentals course to serve as a PLC training device and Table Top “Smart Factory” Cell Controller. Amatrol’s Smart Factory is a fully connected and flexible manufacturing system that connects its physical systems, operational information, and human assets to control manufacturing, maintenance, inventory, and supply chain operations.

FaultPro: A World-Class Troubleshooting Teaching Tool

Portable PLC Troubleshooting uses FaultPro, the industry’s premier program utilizing an electronic fault insertion system that is only available from Amatrol, to implant 30+ faults into the system for troubleshooting. During the learning process, FaultPro allows learners to insert faults in the system as they progress through the step-by-step procedures learning industrial troubleshooting methods. Then, FaultPro can be set to randomly select and insert a fault to test a learner’s troubleshooting abilities and prepare them to solve real-world technical problems once they’re in the field.

Complimentary Student Reference Guide

A sample copy of the PLC Troubleshooting AB CompactLogix Student Reference Guide is included with the learning system. Sourced from the curriculum, the Student Reference Guide supplement this course by providing a condensed, inexpensive reference tool that learners will find invaluable once they finish their training, making it the perfect course takeaway.
