AutomationDirect's free online PLC training program has been expanded with more than a hundred additional training videos. The complete video training series encompasses various levels of training from entry level programming to advanced PLC functions. The training video library is offered to all registrants with no purchase necessary.

This video library has been expanded to include training on the Do-more controller series. Do-more PLCs have advanced features and this training can help those wanting to learn more about modern PLCs. Topics covered include how to use Do-more’s rung editor, devices, structures, subroutines, interrupts, forces, instructions, PEERLINK networking, project simulation and PID loops.

The initial offering covered non-brand specific PLC basics with topics on logic gates, basic switches, sinking and sourcing, scan time, I/O fundamentals and memory addressing. Also included with the initial release were videos specifically covering the AutomationDirect CLICK PLC and include topics on how to use CLICK's navigation, address picker, rung editor, logic instructions, internal control relays and data view window.
