Yes
Repeatable Times
Undergrad- Repeatable 3 Times

At the end of this course, students will be able to:

  • Convert instruction type programmable controller programs to Seimens or other programmable controller programs.
  • Develop programs using a Seimens or other programmable controller.
  • Program HMIs (touch screens) using Seimens or other that will graphically represent movements and measurements in real time.
  • Program a Seimens or other HMI to control the real world devices.
