PLC485: SIEMENS PCS7 Training Course

Course Description

This process control training course is designed to cover all basics and typical other functions of SIEMENS PCS7. Trainees need to have some PLC programming experience as covered in the training course.

All basic and typical other functions necessary to create a complete PLC control logic using function blocks will be explained and demonstrated.

Using the Siemens PCS7 software, the trainees will learn how to configure PCS7 and design the visualization system (HMI or SCADA) predominantly WinCC. They will learn how to build tags, design PID and cascade control loops, build and test advanced process control loops and logic, create bumpless transfer in PCS7 and batch control system using Simatic Sequential Function Charts.

Also, the trainees will learn how to build graphics, alarms, trends, and logs within WinCC.

The goal of this process control training course is to teach and demonstrate how to build all process control logic inside PCS7. Moreover, this process control training course will give you knowledge and experience to build a visualization system in WinCC.

DURATION:

• Blended: 7 Days online (8 hours per day) and 3 days Hands on

AUDIENCE:

• Process control engineers
