You write the logic. The simulator runs it.

Every lesson ends with something you build. Programs run on a simulated PLC with a real scan cycle, timers, counters and a model of the machine, then get tested against the requirements.

Structured path

Nine levels, from what a PLC is to multi-stage machine programs.

Working simulator

Contacts, coils, latches, TON, TOF, TP, CTU, CTD, compares and MOV, scanned like a PLC.

Troubleshooting

Broken programs to diagnose, the way real maintenance work goes.

Industry projects

Motor control, pumps, packaging, lead/lag, sequencing, and a final system.

The learning path

  1. Level 0

    Introduction to Industrial Automation

    What PLCs and Ladder Logic are, and how a control system senses, decides and acts.

  2. Level 1

    Ladder Logic Basics

    Rails, rungs, contacts and coils. AND, OR and NOT. Your first working programs.

  3. Level 2

    Core Ladder Logic

    Seal-in circuits, latching, memory bits and edge detection.

  4. Level 3

    Timers & Counters

    On-delay, off-delay and pulse timers. Up, down and batch counting.

  5. Level 4

    Industrial Control Circuits

    Permissives, interlocks, trips, motor starters, modes and e-stop monitoring.

  6. Level 5

    Sequencing & Machine Logic

    Step-based sequences, state machines, fault recovery and systematic troubleshooting.

  7. Level 6

    Analog & Process Control Fundamentals

    4–20 mA and 0–10 V signals, scaling, setpoints, alarms and the ideas behind PID.

  8. Level 7

    Industrial PLC Programming

    Program structure, data types, naming, reusable blocks, alarms and HMI interaction.

  9. Level 8

    Industry-Ready Ladder Logic

    Machine architecture, modes and states, startup and shutdown, commissioning and testing.

Practical skills, honestly described. The course builds real, transferable skills. It isn't an accredited qualification, and finishing it doesn't on its own make someone professionally qualified.

An educational simulator. It is not vendor programming software and it is not a safety PLC. Never use it to control real equipment.

Vendor-aware. Lessons show how the same ideas look on Siemens, Rockwell, Schneider, Mitsubishi and Omron platforms, and where they differ.
