Parts of a Control System
Learn about the different parts of a control system including the master, external data, controlled devices, control interfaces, and control busses.
Proper Code Design
Highlighting the importance of creating flow charts to help with proper code design before ever writing any actual code.
Relays & Channels Exercise
This is your very first exercise to practice what you've learned so far. This exercise will have you building your own button events to control various relays and channels.
Relays & Channels Exercise Solution
This video has the instructor review the previous exercise in great detail.
Scope of Work
A narrative document that details expected system functionality is needed prior to writing any code. This video will go into detail as to what should be included in a scope of work document.
Select/Active Conditional Implementation
Practice implementing what you learned about conditionals in this easy to follow tutorial. This video focuses on using the select/active conditional.
String Formatting & Embedded Properties
This comprehensive lesson dives into how strings are properly formatted in your code so they can control a device. You will look at a 3rd party protocol document to dissect an RS232 string so it can be used in your code.
String Implementation Part 1
Part one of two, will begin teaching you how to write the code necessary to work with strings. In this lesson, you will build a 4 x 4 matrix switcher and you will use the BCS commands to execute a switch.
String Implementation Part 2
Part two of two, will continue working with the switcher from the previous lesson. This video will focus on receiving a string back from the switcher and parsing the data.
String Parsing Keywords
The focus of this video is on the concept of parsing incoming strings from a device. Learn about all the different string parsing keywords available to help you find the string you are searching for.

Strings Exercise Solution Part 2
Part two of two, this video has the instructor review the previous exercise in great detail.
Strings Overview
This tutorial will introduce you to the concept of sending strings out of your control system to a device. There is a great deal of focus on the differences between sending a string and sending a command.
Switch/Case Conditional Implementation
Practice implementing what you learned about conditionals in this easy to follow tutorial. This video focuses on using the switch/case conditional.
Timelines Exercise
This exercise focuses on timelines. You are given a set of instructions and you're challenged to work on your own in order to complete this exercise.
Timelines Exercise Solution
This video has the instructor review the previous exercise in great detail.
Timelines Implementation
This tutorial will guide you through the process of building your first timeline. You will build a timeline that will handle a time of day event. In other words, every day at a certain time, do something.
Timelines Overview
Timelines are used to set up timing events in your code. This lesson teaches you about the concepts and keywords that you will be using when you create your own timelines.
