IEC Paradigms (Level 4)

🏭 Master Industrial Automation with IEC Paradigms (Level 4)

📘 Course Title: Functional Block Diagrams, Sequential Function Charts, Instruction Lists, Ladder Diagrams, and Structured Text

🎓 Instructor: Paul Lynn

Unlock the Full Potential of PLC Programming 🚀

You've mastered Ladder Logic on platforms like RSLogix 5000. Now, it's time to elevate your skills to new heights by learning the other "languages" of PLC programming: Functional Block Diagrams, Sequential Function Charts, Instruction Lists, Ladder Diagrams (LD), and Structured Text. This course is a deep dive into the world of IEC paradigms, tailored for professionals who are ready to become true masters of programmable logic controllers (PLCs).

Why Take This Course? 🤔

• Diverse Development Environments: Get hands-on experience with Logix5000, AB's Connected Components Workbench, and ABB's Automation Builder. Understand the nuances of each environment and how to apply them effectively in real-world scenarios.

• Comprehensive Simulation & Real-time Execution: Learn to simulate your code, allowing you to run and test your programs step by step, ensuring they perform as intended before deployment.

• Expert Instruction & Practical Application: Taught by industry expert Paul Lynn, this course is designed to not just teach but instill a deep understanding of each programming paradigm. You'll tackle real-world projects that will demonstrate your expertise.

Course Breakdown:

• PLC Fundamentals (Level 1): Lay the groundwork with Ladder Logic, the most popular PLC programming language, and learn to create and run programs on your computer.

• Applied Logic (Level 2): Put your knowledge to the test by solving complex problems independently. Learn through doing, and witness Paul Lynn's problem-solving techniques for each challenge.

• Process Visualization (Level 3): Expand your expertise into five different HMI/SCADA environments and complete projects that showcase your skills in both development and visualization.

• **IEC Paradigms (Level 4) - This Course: Master all five IEC programming languages (plus an ABB proprietary language) across multiple platforms, and complete comprehensive projects to solidify your knowledge. By the end, you'll be equipped to tackle any PLC challenge with confidence.

• TIA Portal Master Project (Level 5): The final capstone project where you'll program a full-scale power plant using all five PLC programming languages in parallel, complete with an HMI interface. This is your chance to shine and demonstrate the full extent of your skills in a real-world application!
