Course Description
This practical and highly-interactive course includes various practical sessions and exercises. Theory learnt will be applied using our state-of-the-art simulators.
This APC/FDM course covers the practical application of Advanced Process Control (APC) or Field Device Manager (FDM) systems to a variety of continuous process plants. The course discuss automation and its importance, types of plants and controls, automation hierarchy, control system architecture, instrumentation and control, different types of computer-based control systems including PLCS and DCS. Basic requirements for good operator interface, industrial communication, information interchange, man-machine communication, enterprise level, engineering & commissioning, performance & dependability, dependable control systems, safety & hazard analysis, concepts & implementation of alarm & trip systems, device management protocols and Honeywell field device manager (FDM) will be illustrated during the course.
The course will provide hands-on training sessions in PLC and HMI (OIU and SCADA) programming techniques using one of our state-of-the art Allen Bradley SLC 500, Siemens S7-200, AB Micrologix 1000 (Digital or Analog), AB SLC5/03 and AB WS5610 PLC simulators. Please refer to the last page of this course overview for details of simulators.
