This course is designed for individuals who need to maintain and troubleshoot a ControlLogix system — but have no current working experience with ControlLogix systems. Upon completion of this course, you should be able to troubleshoot a previously operational ControlLogix system and restore normal operation.


You will have the opportunity to develop and practice these skills by:

    • Learning basic concepts and terminology used with
      • ControlLogix system hardware
      • Studio 5000 Logix Designer
    • Practicing a systematic strategy for diagnosing and troubleshooting problems
      • Configuration issues
      • Electrical noise
      • Faulty/malfunctioning field devices
      • Controller I/O, or other hardware issues
    • Performing hands-on exercises


All Logix5000 systems use the same control engine; therefore, tasks are similar. You will see applicable references for other systems.
