Allen Bradley ControlLogix (Modules 5-8) Training Course

This modules starts off with reinforcing some of the basics presented in Modules 1-4.  The features of the GSV and SSV instructions are presented to get and set system values.  The next lesson goes over the status flags used to monitor certain events in the logic and then instructions used to manipulate and move data.  After this, indirect addressing is discussed as a powerful method of accessing tags.  Furthermore, the student will gain an introduction to instructions that work on a file level, otherwise known as arrays.  The final lesson covers some special instructions that are commonly used to monitor and compare machine state with a reference bit pattern.

The module begins by covering some Miscellaneous instructions for statistical control.  The instructor will then cover Bit Shift instructions that can be used to track parts flow in an assembly line production.  The next lesson covers ways to handle data in stacks with the Stack Register instructions.  The final lesson covers the Sequencer instructions used in repetitive machine operation.

This module introduces a powerful method for creating your own instructions called Add-On Instructions.  The next lesson covers some of the new advanced features in the Message instruction.  Furthermore, the Event Task and UID/UIE Instructions are taught.  Finally, the instructor will go over the usage of the FOR and BRK Instruction.

This module begins by covering the ASCII string instructions used to develop text messages for display and communication. Next, the Power-Up Handler and Fault Routines will be discussed. The last lesson covers the concepts of closed loop control with the PID instruction.
