The road to an automated machine.
A guide for manufacturers and operators
TIA1: Hardware configuration and programming basics
Module Description:
This course module will provide you with the basics of how to commission machines using TIA Portal. Throughout the module, we’ll provide you with a structured introduction to hardware project planning, project management, software modules and programming languages, as well as visualization with WinCC Advanced. It’s just what you need if you’re looking to commission existing source codes for a specific machine or carry out error analyses on plants that are already running.
