T315C- 800xA Training course
Course goal
The goal of this course is to learn the engineering of a
complete control project using the Extended Automation System 800xA with AC
800M controllers and Control Builder as the engineering tool. Note that this
course is split in two parts and the follow-up course is T315H for the Human
System Interface (HIS) configuration.
Learning objectives
Upon completion of this course the participants will be
able to:
n Explain the System 800xA architecture and the function of the
different components
n Navigate in the system and create new objects / aspects
n Create a new control project and plan the structure of application
programs based on a P&ID and a Functional Specification
n Configure the AC 800M hardware and corresponding I/O’s
n Handle the standard libraries provided by ABB and develop project
specific libraries
n Design and configure application programs by using a variety of IEC
61131-3 languages
n Define tasks and describe the assignment rules
n Analyze the controller diagnostics and optimize the CPU load / memory
usage
n Configure user defined object types
n Setup communication using various protocols
n Setup the OPC connectivity to AC800M
Participant profile
This training is targeted to system and application
engineers, commissioning and maintenance personnel, service engineers and
system integrators.
