Subject aims expressed by acquired skills and competences
In the subject Industrial Control systems and networks students learn how to use PLC's in control of mechatronics applications. The main aim of the course is to acquaint students with possibilities of PLC's and visualizations, with their characteristics and give them good knowledge of concrete types. The following systems are used in the subject - programmable controllers Bernecker&Rainer, SCADA system Intouch and communication system Ethernet Powerlink.
After passing the course students have the main knowledge of programmable logic controllers. Students get practical skills with one type of commonly used PLC’s and visualization systems. They are able to choose right PLC type for certain application and develop control program.

Summary
Programmable logic controllers are most used industrial control system today. Good knowledge of this field of automation and mechatronics is necessary for students in the study branch of Mechatronics. Lectures are attended to programmable logic controllers hardware, methodology of control system analysis and design, development of control program. Part of the lectures is attended to basics of HMI/SCADA systems and communications. Practical exercises are hold in well-equipped laboratory. Students solve two individual works - one containing control program for the PLC, another containing visualization application.
