RATIONALE:
In Present global scenario of manufacturing, industries are moving towards
complete automation. Small and medium scale industries require PLC and
SCADA technology for the data acquisition and control. Therefore, it is
necessary for electronics engineers to have knowledge of both PLC and
SCADA technology. This course attempts to provide basic configurationally
knowledge of these technology to develop operational competency. Hence this
course is foundation for the engineers who want to specialize in PLC and
SCADA.
COURSE OUTCOMES:
After completing this course students will be able to–
1. Identify different components of PLC and SCADA.
2. Select appropriate PLC modules for given application.
3. Develop PLC ladder program for a given application.
4. Develop a SCADA mimic diagram
4. Test a simple SCADA application
5. Test a simple PLC-SCADA application.
