TRUK3030-1000 | TwinCAT 3 PLC programming

Overview

This course focusses on PLC programming andhardware configuration using the TwinCAT 3platform. Participants will learn about PLCprogramming with TwinCAT 3 and how toconfigure the hardware of a system using theVisual Studio shell. The training is based on theIEC 61131-3 standard. Advanced options such asobject-oriented extensions of the IEC standard,module generation in C++ or high-level languagevisualisation interfaces are deliberately notincluded.
