Computer Control 1 Unit – 90-CT1
The model 90-CT1 Computer Control 1 Unit teaches Allen-Bradley Micrologix 1000 model programmable logic controllers used in industrial, commercial, and residential applications. Students learn industry-relevant skills including how to program, operate, install, and interface Micrologix programmable controllers for various applications.
The mounting console conveniently attaches to the top of the 90-EC1-A Electric Relay Control Unit to provide live electro-pneumatic applications. The I/O are wired to plug-in jacks that can be connected to the I/O on the 90-EC1-A to provide quick setup of applications. Students can also use these jacks to connect to other learning systems, student projects, and entire machines.
The model 90-CT1 includes a mounting console, Allen-Bradley Micrologix 1000 model programmable controller with 10 24 VDC discrete inputs and 6 24VDC discrete outputs, external I/O interface unit, student learning materials for both theory and lab, and teacher’s guide. It requires 82-704-W Micrologix/SLC500 PLC software/cable and a 24 VDC Power Supply if not used with 90-EC1-A.
The 82-704-W Micrologix 1000/ SLC 500 PLC Software (required but not included) has Rockwell’s RSLogix software for programming Allen Bradley’s Micrologix 1000 and SLC 500 families of programmable controllers. It also includes one RS-232 serial cable with a connector on each end that is compatible with the PC and the serial port on Micrologix PLCs.
The RSLogix software enables users to develop ladder logic programs on a PC, transfer them to and from a PLC, and monitor PLC operations. The software requires a PC with Windows XP or higher operating system.
