In this chapter, we combined the skills we have learned throughout this book into a sample application. This chapter worked through building a complete robot bartender control system from scratch, including configuring the modules, writing the code, and downloading it onto our PLC. You now understand how to select the components required for a simple ControlLogix industrial control solution.
You have also learned how to wire digital input and output cards for a small control system project. You now have a deeper understanding of the entire industrial control system building, tuning, and troubleshooting process and can apply this knowledge to real-world control environments. Creating a robot bartender is a fun and gratifying experience.
Please do reach out to me on Twitter and send photos of your robot bartender creations at @austin_m_scott. I look forward to seeing them!
