SUMMARY:Rockwell to Siemens TIA Portal (FREE)
DESCRIPTION:A hands-on workshop for Rockwell PLC programmers to experience how TIA Portal compares to RSLogixTM 5000. Join us at this hands-on workshop\, presented virtually by a Certified Rockwell / Siemens Solution Partner\, for you to migrate your Rockwell PLC software knowledge to the Siemens TIA Portal programming environment. \nWhat will you learn?  \n\nTIA Portal vs. Studio 5000 layout\, programming aspects and structured environment similarities/differences\nHow to apply your current Studio 5000 programming knowledge to TIA Portal\nHow to start a successful TIA Portal project – leave with this on a flash drive\nHow easy the TIA Portal is to use\, program and understand\nHow to use advanced TIA Portal functions like integrated “no programming” diagnostics\n\nHands-On: Experience first-hand tools and technology You’ll work live and online with the TIA Portal – a single engineering framework for controllers\, distributed I/O\, HMI\, drives\, motion control\, and motor management to provide unparalleled performance and results. \nAgenda \n8:00 AM – 8:30 AM – Check In \n8:30 AM – 12:00 PM – Hands On Workshop \n12:00 PM – 1:00 PM – Lunch \n1:00 PM – 4:30 PM – Hands On Workshop \ntraining workstations and materials are provided during workshop \nCourse Length & Time: One Day. 8:30 AM – 4:30 PM \nCost: FREE \nDownload Training Details

SUMMARY:TIA Portal 3-Day Programming Workshop ($2\,400)
DESCRIPTION:This 3-Day Siemens TIA Portal Programming workshop is tailored for someone who installs\, maintains\, and programs automation systems. This is a programming based workshop which means basic PLC programming knowledge is required for attendance. \nTopics:  \n\nSiemens Product Family Overview\nTIA Portal Family Overview\nPLC Programming Basics\nHMI Programming Basics\nData Blocks and Memory\nIntroduction to Networks\nConfiguration of Distributed I/O\nConfiguration and Programming of Systems Diagnostics and Alarming\nHow to use Libraries and Archive Your Project Data\n\n\nThis 3-Day workshop is taught using S7-1500 Hardware on a workstation (1 student per workstation.) Computers provided by GCG. \nParticipants will learn about the SIMATIC hardware\, how to configure it and program it from a “clean sheet.” They will also learn to use built-in diagnostic tools to troubleshoot both their code and hardware. Additionally\, attendees will learn how to configure and troubleshoot networked devices such as distributed I/O and HMI’s. The course format is a combination of instructions and hands-on exercises allowing students to practice programming in the “TIA Portal” programming environment. \nPrerequisite: None \nCourse Length & Time: Three days. 8:30 AM – 4:30 PM \nCost: $2\,400 \nDownload Training Details
