Training goals

Once training has been completed, the participants will be able to implement small programming tasks using the Beckhoff TwinCAT PLC and the GML-CI and analyze existing programs. The functionality of the Beckhoff TwinCAT System Manager and application possibilities are part of the training. The PLCCapturen program will be taught so that the participant willbe able to save the current online status of the PLC system in case of an error. The participants will also learn the handling and usage of AMS ZPoint-CI and can properly interpret notifications and errors that can be created by means of the FIT software. Furthermore instructions for the activation and optimization of servo-motors will be given.
