This paper describes the details of an undergraduate project in electrical engineering technology program at UMES and experience gained by the student. The objective of this project was to incorporate the Allen Bradley commercial SLC 503 programmable logic controller (PLC) trainer to control and steer a utility cart. The utility cart was required to perform the maneuvering motions of going forward, going in reverse, turning right, and turning left, and stopping. All of these motions had to be controlled by PLC trainer.
