Logix Systems
CompactLogix and ControlLogix
CIC’s Logix training stream focuses on the Allen-Bradley CompactLogix and ControlLogix platform. These controllers are used on individual machines as well as connected production lines and plant systems. Choose this stream if you or your team work with these controllers or need to develop Logix-platform skills.
The training progression covers RSLogix 5000 and Studio 5000 Logix Designer. The software version used depends on the controller and its firmware.
Before you start
Recommended: CIC-LX-M301 or equivalent advanced troubleshooting experience.
New to this platform? Start with CIC-LX-101 — Legacy-to-Studio Foundations, or call CIC about your experience.
Maintaining existing machinery and developing applications are separate pathways. Compare the pathways if your responsibilities differ.
Choose your platform first, then the course level that matches your experience and responsibilities. You do not need to complete the Small PLC stream before starting Logix.
Not sure which stream fits? Tell CIC the PLC model or software used on your site and we’ll help you choose.
Practical outcomes
What you will practise
- Diagnose across integrated systems rather than a single controller
- Trace faults through networks, drives and HMIs
- Use the connected-system evidence to identify the root cause
- Practise plant-style diagnostic scenarios on trainer-station hardware
Why this is useful at work
For you as a learner
Connect the evidence from Logix controllers, HMIs and drives when a fault crosses system boundaries.
For your maintenance or engineering team
Develop cross-system diagnostic capability for integrated plant support and technical coordination.
Practical learning
Connect the logic to the equipment
Work through the course outcomes using progressive ladder-logic exercises and practical trainer work. Relate the application to its inputs, outputs and connected devices, with opportunities to discuss your approach with the instructor.
Contact CIC to discuss the detailed course outline and preparation for your chosen level.
