Advanced PLC Programming: From Fundamentals to Professional Mastery

Description

This short book with its demo videos is part 2 of my 3-part series on PLC programming. It is an exhaustive collection of my tutorials and demo videos on how to advance your knowledge of PLCs by working with PowerFlex 525 family of Variable Frequency Drives.

You will find this book very helpful if you are an electrician, an instrumentation technician, a manufacturing operator, an automation professional or engineer looking to looking to progress their career or level up their knowledge of PLC hardware and PLC programming skills.

There are 5 chapters in this book, and are accompanied with 16 in-depth HD demo videos that you can download. These videos simplify everything you need to understand, and help you speed up your learning of Allen-BradleyÕs PowerFlex 525 drives and how to install them within a manufacturing environment. There is also a link in this book for you to download my PLC programs (codes) for your revision.

Since I assume you have little knowledge of PowerFlex 525 Drive and PLC programming, I prepared this book in such a way that when you read it and study the accompanying demo videos (16 episodes), you will not only have an in-depth knowledge of the different parameters which need to be configured in order to properly setup and utilize the PowerFlex 525 VFD, you will be able to make sense of the documentation, and gain a lot of job experience you need to build innovations and earn higher salaries.

In this book, I start with the basics, that is, connecting power and turning on the PowerFlex 525 hardware, and move on to the control methods that don’t even require you have the hardware. Then I demonstrated the advanced control methods that utilize the EtherNet/IP protocol, as well as a CompactLogix 1769-L24ER-QB1B PLC. This will help you develop confidence in working with these Variable Frequency Drives.
