SIMATIC S7-300/400

INTERMEDIATE with Step7

COURSE OUTLINE
SIEMENS PLC HMI & SCADA TRAINING
This is an INTERMEDIATE training program with SIEMENS Step7, which include hands-on
training.

Requirements
This course is for SIMATIC S7-300/400 PLC, HMI & Introduction to SCADA, users who are involved
with developing or sustaining automation systems and their application programs.
This training program is also helpful for engineers who plans to work on SIEMENS Automation.
This course is designed for industry "first responders" to operations controlled with Siemens STEP 7
automated control systems. Participants not requiring programming skills of their Siemens control
system to maximize line uptime should attend this course. This course also makes a great platform
for those new to automation systems and industrial electronics.

Objectives
This course provides Participants with a solid base of STEP 7 PLC tools and skills necessary for
successful system diagnostics and repair. This course is ideal for environments with high uptime
requirements and stable control system programs. Fully functional application programs are used as
a baseline for the participant to understand key process flow information, diagnostics tools and repair
techniques. Build skills and reduce downtime with this focused automation system troubleshooting
course.
This course takes a systems approach addressing the S7300 / 400 PLCs, plus basic connectivity
and functionality of an HMI, and PROFIBUS based remote I/O.
Throughout this course Participants will build or modify a STEP7 project using proper program
structuring, documentation and test tools. Various instructions, memory types, blocks and functions
will be introduced to provide the participant with solid concepts of structured programming.

Course Certificate
Certificate of participation will be awarded after the training
