A common misperception is that hard-wired control systems (e.g. cube relays, timers, counters, “green boards”) are simpler to implement and more cost effective than Micro PLCs or Programmable Relays. Designed for individuals who have limited or no experience working with PLCs, this seminar will focus on explaining the basics of PLC technology and how these solutions can replace traditional hardwired control systems to increase flexibility while saving time, money, and panel space.

PLC Made Simple will cover the following topics:

* Introduction to PLC Components and Their Basic Operation
* Introduction to Intelligent Programmable Relays and Their Basic Operation
* Hands-on Setup, Configuration and Programming Examples/Exercises
* Cost Benefit Analysis of Programmable vs. Hardwired Controls
