Hello,
I work for a Water District and we are going to be needing some people to maintain our SCADA system. I have about a year to prepare for this demand. I know nothing about PLC's and want to learn everything. I have worked with computers for a long time and have always like electronics. I am going to take an on line course through George Brown College. It's the best thing I could find that offered some quick and convenient training. I also want to make a test bench at home. I have an irrigation system at home and thought about making a PLC to control that and adding rain sensors to make it more complex. What equipment do you think I should try to find. The PLC's my work uses are AB's Controllogix, PLC-5 and SLC 500. I look forward to your replies and thanks in advance for your assistance.
