Learning Journey - SIMATIC PCS 7 Technologisches Engineering (ST-PCS7TEC-LJ)

In this learning journey, you will learn about the possibilities of the SIMATIC PCS 7 process control system with a focus on standardization and modularization in technological engineering. The main topic is the use of modern type-instance concepts in SIMATIC PCS 7 that support efficient AS engineering.
An optimal mix of guided live modules (online) and self-learning modules will provide you with all of the content imperative for your work and sustainable learning success. Various practical tasks in our virtual exercise environment throughout the learning journey help you to prepare for practical application. The learning journey provides curated on-demand content to support you in your own personal practice transfer..

More information on learning journeys

By doing exercises in a virtual training environment, you can implement the process automation of a plant using software and commission it into in a simulated system. SIMATIC PCS 7 aspects such as consistency in the overall system, plant-oriented project planning, data storage and project management are supplemented by additional functions that enable efficient and cost-effective project planning.
The focus here is on the application of the various type-instance concepts in SIMATIC PCS 7 that support efficient AS engineering, including working with shared equipment, individual control unit types, the application of SFC types, and technological engineering with technical equipment and technical functions. You project a "shared" EM that can be occupied, prioritized and adopted by several EPHs through a standardized assignment logic.
After this learning journey, you will be able to...
- use the main engineering tools for the creation of the type-instance concepts.
- mass data with Control Module Types and their instances using technological engineering.
- apply the type-instance concept for SFC-Type`s.
- the technical equipment with "Equipment Module Types" and the technical functions "Equipment Phases Types", as well as the corresponding visualization in a structured way.
- synchronize changes in master data libraries and projects.
- project the assignment logic of an EPH to occupy a shared EM according to the requirements.

- Project manager, Configuring engineers
- Programmers
- Commissioning engineers
