The automation system on your plant underpins your entire operation. It is thus critical that you have the knowledge and tools to quickly identify and fix problems as they occur to ensure you have a safe, secure and productive system. This workshop distils all the tips and tricks learnt over many years.
If you have worked in industry, you are familiar with PLCs and SCADA systems and understand their basic operation. However, an increasing need today is to also understand how to troubleshoot the typical problems that occur from time to time with your PLC and SCADA based equipment. You want to be able to quickly diagnose problems using your PLC software; know how to connect to the right PLC processor online, make minor changes to get the machine running and have the know-how to test new ideas and hardware components. In addition, you want to be able to do troubleshooting and problem solving of your associated SCADA system.
