Mechatronics II

Catalog description

3 cr. hrs.; 2 lecture hours; 2 lab hours per week. Prerequisites: MATH 223 "C" or better and ENGT 210 "C" or better A continuation of the Mechatronics course offered in the third semester. This course involves a study of closed-loop controllers, multi-loop systems, PLC’s, and human-machine interfaces. The course focuses upon continuous control mode algorithms, multi-loop configurations, and HMI/MMI using commonly available software. Loop analysis, tuning, and troubleshooting are emphasized during task-oriented lab experiments. The ISA-CCST emphasis is also continues from the previous course.
