The aim of the course is that the students master the programming and implementation of programmable logic controllers (PLC).

The outcome of the subject is knowledge about programming languages for programming programmable logic controllers (PLC), and knowledge for the application of (PLC).

Introduction to PLC. PLC structure. PLC Programming: Sequential functional diagram, structured text, statement list, ladder diagrams, functional block diagram. Fuzzy controllers. Connecting PLCs. Creating projects with PLCs. Applications of PLCs.

Teaching is conducted through lectures and exercises. During the exercises the student is required to do practice-oriented tasks. Knowledge testing is carried out through two tests and the final exam, while before that student has to do all the exercises provided. The final exam is in written form.
