IDEC PLC & OI Touchscreen Training


Customer Testimonials

Overview

If you’re looking to improve your knowledge of IDEC PLCs and OI touchscreens, you’ve come to the right place! IDEC training courses take a hands-on approach using real world examples to enhance your learning and retention. We guarantee you will walk out of our class confident you can program, debug and maintain IDEC automation systems.

IDEC PLC/OI Training covers:

  1. PLC fundamentals such as hardware, numbering systems and how a PLC works.
  2. Basic functions: latching circuit, series and parallel circuits; how to use timers, counters and advanced functions such as data manipulation; Modbus Communications and PID.
  3. Demonstrations on the MicroSmart Pentra, the fastest micro-PLC on the market.
  4. Programming with the new IDEC 8.4" HG3G operator interface.
  5. Question & Answer session with our PLC experts to discuss your specific controls application.


Our 3-day training course consists of two days of basic and advanced PLC training and one day of OI touchscreen training. You can pick and choose any day to attend or attend all three. If you are already familiar with IDEC PLCs and want to learn more about our OI Touchscreen, just sign up for the 1-day OI Touchscreen training. If you’re only interested in our PLC, sign up for the 2-day PLC training. For a full understanding of IDEC automation products, we strongly recommend you take all three days of training.
