S7 Service 2 Course (ST-SERV2)

  • The course uses a 'hands-on' practical approach to reinforce the theoretical aspects of the training. Practical tasks are undertaken using a simulation rig, distributed profibus nodes and S7-300. This course is for SIMATIC S7-300-400 PLC users with basic SIMATIC control system knowledge who install or maintain automation systems and their application programs. This course continues skill development in troubleshooting and modifying a control system. Participants will use STEP7 software tools to build new features, diagnostics and communications into the application project. Program development using organization blocks, system functions, function blocks and data blocks along with analogue signal processing are included. Configuration and integration of an HMI and drive system into the student's application project builds experience managing a complete automated control system. The course format consists of instruction and hands-on exercises. Students will use test, debug and diagnostic tools to complete the commissioning, programming and system integration exercises.
