Whats’s in the kit?
Two DVD’s or video tapes, showing examples of programming with Directsoft. You can get ‘Hands-On’ experience by following along with the instructor who is using the same hardware.
A pre-wired PLC trainer based on the Automationdirect.com DL-05DD PLC, with push buttons, lights, selector switches and a programming cable ready to plug into your computer.
A DL-05 Users Manual, which is used throughout the video and is great for future reference.
