Outcome Highlights

You can expect to master the following topics:

  • Soft-PLC

    Learn How To Use a Software Based PLC Free of Charge. And connect it to various devices over any protocol.

  • Modbus-TCP

    One of the most common Communication Protocol in industry. Learn how it works, and how to use it.

  • Icon & text

    Use an icon and text to communicate the value proposition and share the specific benefits of your offering. What makes it unique in your market?

  • Arduino-PLC Interfacing

    Arduino Can be very useful for mini tasks and prototyping. Learn how to use Arduino as an IO Shield and send signals back to your PLC. Setup your own Modbus TCP Client using Arduino and connect with any ModbusTCP device.

  • Arduino-HMI Interfacing

    Learn how to Use Arduino to connect to any Industrial HMI. Make your own Prototype PLC using Arduino, and use the HMI to control and read signals.

What is the most valuable thing about this course?

You will build Two Full Projects from Scratch Step By step. And the best part is you will be able to simulate and integrate most of the things without having to buy any expensive industrial automation hardware. You will be out around 50$ paying for the Arduino and the Ethernet shield, because that is everything you need. You will be able to use a simple Arduino as an IO connected to all Sensors and actuators and then communicate all of those signals to your SoftPLC which has all PLC Functionalities.
