Overview
The focus of this training course is to provide fundamental knowledge of the web based TwinCAT 3 HMI. Participants will be guided through building a sample HMI project, allowing them to familiarise themselves with the engineering environment, learn key development concepts and get an overview of the tools and features included in the HMI.
Goals
Understand the various parts of TwinCAT 3 HMI studied:
- navigate TwinCAT 3 HMI from within Visual Studio
- understand design principles using Beckhoff controls
- connect to a PLC program and interact with variables from the HMI
- understand HMI logic developed through a graphical interface
- design re-useable elements where possible
- develop and deploy their own HMI project after the course
