In this course, you will learn from scratch how to become a PLC code programmer. This course is specifically for people who want to start their training in Siemens SIMATIC S7-1200 PLC & and a typical HMI (Human-Machine Interface) device. We are using Siemens S7-1200 PLC and KTP 400 HMI along with Siemens TIA- Total Integrated Automation software for making all these tutorial videos. The videos are all high-quality video tutorials.
We are teaching programming in Ladder Logic with a touch of FBD- Functional block Diagram. Later in the HMI section, we interfaced Siemens S7-1200 PLC with HMI to learn to monitor and control PLC parameters.
Following is the pattern of the course:
Introduction to Siemens SIMATIC S7-1200 PLC Hardware and wiring & & how it executes a Ladder Logic program?
Introduction to TIA PORTAL virtual software and its configuration
Introduction to Siemens S7-1200 TIA Portal simulator
Next about thirty carefully designed lectures show you how to use TIA instructions properly with excellent meaningful tutorial examples
about eight carefully designed lectures show you how to configure and design screens on the KTP400 HMI device
In most of the lectures, you will expose to the usage of Factory I/O Industrial Application Examples in a real 3D Dynamics environment
Introduction to S7-1200 analog I/O signals and modules using the Factory I/O to demonstrate how Analog IO signals can be handled
The three last lectures show you what on/off and PID controllers are and how they can be programmed by the TIA
After learning this course, you would be able to use TIA to program Siemens PLC and HMI in your project or industrial applications.
