In this face-to-face course you will get to know the software by using the simulation software SIMIT and get an overview of the functions and libraries in the process automation environment.
Objectives
By doing exercises on original SIMATIC PCS 7 training devices and practical examples, you will learn step by step how to design simulations / models for testing PCS 7 automation software. The perfect interaction of all components integrated in SIMIT enables you to produce more in the highest quality over the long term and to establish new products on the market much more quickly.
On completion of the course you are able to:
create your own components and templates
to use the possibilities of effective engineering in SIMIT
to establish couplings between the simulation in SIMIT and PCS 7 automation systems that are emulated with PLCSIM or a virtual controller.
