The Totally Integrated Automation Portal (TIA Portal) forms the work environment for integrated engineering with SIMATIC STEP 7 and SIMATIC WinCC. In this first part of the SIMATIC TIA Portal programming training, we teach you the handling of the TIA Portal, basic knowledge about the structure of the SIMATIC S7 automation system, configuration and parameterization of hardware, and the basics of standard PLC programming. You also receive an overview of HMI, PROFINET IO, and connecting drives.
Objectives
After attending the course, you can do the following:
Understand the fundamentals of interaction of the TIA components
Solve simple programming tasks using elementary STEP 7 instructions
Reliably operate the "TIA Portal" engineering platform
Program simple plant functions with basic STEP 7 instructions in the ladder diagram (LAD) or function block diagram (FBD)
Perform simple commissioning of TIA component
You can deepen your theoretical knowledge with numerous practical exercises on a TIA system model. This consists of a SIMATIC S7-1500 automation system, ET 200SP distributed I/O, Touchpanel TP700, drive SINAMICS G120 and a belt model.
