Full course description
This course covers the following topics:
AC Motor Drives
Portable AC Motor Drive teaches variable frequency AC solid-state control of 3-phase electric motors. Learners develop knowledge in the operation, installation, performance analysis, troubleshooting, and design of AC solid state control using 2-wire, 3-wire, manual, and open-loop speed control. Highlights motor jogging and dynamic braking as well as programmable acceleration and deceleration.
Electrical Control Systems
The eLearning course introduces the functions of relay logic control circuits used in industrial, commercial and residential applications. Describing functions and application of functions covered in control logic include logic elements such as AND, OR, NOT, NOR, and NAND. Ladder Diagrams are explained and learners connect, operate, and design a ladder diagram using one or more logic elements. Additional concepts include Electro-pneumatic solenoid valves; sequencing control including relay operation, relay application, limit switch operation and application; and timers and advanced systems including time-delay relays, multiple cylinder control, and machine modes of operation.

PLC Analog Application (Ebook)
This course teaches PLC control of analog input and output devices. Analog I/O capability enables PLCs to more precisely control processes by providing variable output signals and receiving variable input feedback from sensors. Applications include temperature control, liquid level control, and variable speed conveyors just to name a few.
PLC Profibus - Siemens S7 (Ebook)
The PLC Profibus Learning System adds to the Siemens S7300 Troubleshooting Learning System to teach industrial communication networks and data exchange using the Profibus-DP network. Profibus is a high-speed industrial network for use with Siemens PLCs. The Profibus network provides real time control required by automated production lines and process control systems as well as providing services necessary to communicate with other departments within the manufacturing facility.
