This course is designed to give trainees an in-depth of industrial networks and system integration. It includes practical demonstrations with live PLCs, HMIs, Drives and other field devices.
Course Objectives
Have a deep understanding of leading fieldbus systems such as Modbus, PROFIBUS, PROFINET, Ethernet/IP and DeviceNet.
Integrate PLCs and HMIs from different manufactures in a control system.
Configure and write programs for communication between PLCs from the same manufacturer and different manufacturers.
Configure OPC Clients and Servers to interface with PLCs.
