In this online training you will learn how to create a PCS neo compliant fail-safe application with CFC, experiencing a perfect combination of theory and practical exercises.
The theoretical parts of the training are supported by practical exercises. These are carried out on CPU 410-5H fail-safe automation systems with fail-safe communication (PROFIsafe) and fail-safe signal modules. The training environment of the online course is virtually recreated with "PCS neo in the cloud" and "SIMIT".
Obiettivi
After attending the training you can do the following:
Raise your awareness of the Machinery Directive and relevant standards
Select and configure fail-safe hardware according to your functional safety requirements
Commission fail-safe SIMATIC controllers
Configure safety-related functions and determine and set safety-relevant times
