SIMATIC S5 System Handling and Troubleshooting COMPACT

Seminar duration: 3 days, 08.00 a.m. - 05.00 p.m. | Cost per participant: 2,389 EUR plus VAT

The new COMPACT seminar on SIMATIC® S5 provides valuable fundamental knowledge on components, applications, and special features, as well as practical experience in dealing with faults over the course of 3 days.
Participants will learn to program independently and create functions using practical examples. To ensure effective learning, the practice programs are independently tested by each participant on test rigs.
The focus is on handling the programming device. Participants will learn the correct program settings and how to analyse output messages.

This is the ideal learning and training platform for young professionals who want to gain access to S5-controlled systems. Experienced maintenance personnel will benefit from practical fault resolution.
Using the unique fault simulation racks, realistic faults in hardware and software of a virtual S5 system will be worked on. From fault reading to complete component replacement and recommissioning, various practical applications will be learned under the guidance of experienced instructors.

Hans W.

Very friendly and family-like team. Excellent facilities.

Tim R.

The seminar leader was not only very knowledgeable in theory but also had a lot of practical experience.

Susanne L.

What I liked the most was the practical work (troubleshooting), because it allowed me to practice exactly what I encounter daily in my job.

Werner I.

The examples for troubleshooting at the rack were very goof. The entire seminar was just right for me. Both instructors did an excellent job. I was never bored at any point.

Angi E.

Everything was very understandable, the course instructor immediately addressed problems and was very helpful. Everything just fit perfectly for me.
