Industry 4 0: Siemens Programmable Logic Controller Simatic S7-300 (TIA Portal)
07 - 08 OCTOBER 2026
COURSE INTRODUCTION
This practical programme develops core PLC programming and diagnostic skills using Siemens S7-300 and the TIA Portal environment. Participants learn to structure, document, test and commission PLC programs, work with signals and communication links, and apply systematic troubleshooting methods in industrial automation settings. Practical examples and guided discussion help participants connect the subject to decisions and challenges in their own workplace.
COURSE OBJECTIVES
By the end of this programme, participants should be able to:
- Explain PLC architecture, scan behaviour and the performance characteristics of SIMATIC S7 systems.
- Create and document a TIA Portal project using correct data types and addressing.
- Develop structured logic for digital and analogue signals.
- Test programs and monitor I/O safely during commissioning.
- Diagnose PLC hardware, program and field-signal faults systematically.
- Configure basic industrial communication using the MPI interface.
WHO SHOULD ATTEND
This programme is suitable for engineers, technicians, automation personnel, maintenance teams, production teams, digital transformation leads and technical staff involved in industrial systems.
