The simulation also enables program to be fully tested offline before they are entered and run in an online ‘real-world’ environment removing safety concerns and possible damage to real equipment. Essentially the PLCLogix 500 simulates the PLC, ladder rung editor and all the electrical components that have, until now, been required to learn PLC programming and operation. This simulation software which includes over 250 pre-built lab projects, allows the student to develop their programming skills, writing, testing, and de-bugging PLC programs.
The simulation software, PLCLogix 500, integrated into the PLC Technician program, is designed to emulate the Rockwell (Allen Bradley) series of PLCs. Along with the expanded simulation capability, this professional version features a large device library of over 4,000 devices, easy SPICE model import, and no limit on the number of pins for an individual circuit. CircuitLogix allows users to simulate any combination of analog and digital components. Integrated within the Electronics and Electromechanical programs CircuitLogix uses two dimensional, schematic circuit representation in a simulation environment to build, test and troubleshoot more advanced circuits. 3D Lab also features a ‘Lab Quiz’ function that allows a student to develop and test their troubleshooting skills. It provides an easy to use and easy to understand introduction to building, testing and visualizing basic electronics circuit. Integrated within the Electronics and Electromechanical programs the 3DLab simulator is used mainly in the introductory level modules, providing a realistic lab simulation environment for DC circuit experiments. The simulation software includes LogixSim for automation simulation, CircuitLogix, 3DLab for electronics and electromechanical simulation, RoboLogix for robotics simulation PLCLogix 500 for PLC simulation in PLC Technician and PLCLogix 5000 in PLC Technician II.
The cornerstone of the Automation, Electronics, Electromechanical, Robotics, PLC and PLC Technician II programs is the simulation software, which is fully integrated within the learning material and bridges the gap between theoretical and practical usage.
