S7 Automation Maintenance 1

This course (SCT-S7300S1C) is the first of a two-part series designed for maintainers and “first responders” to Siemens S7 automated control systems.

Maintenance technicians, electricians, supervisors, and others, who need to develop active skills using their Siemens Hardware system, should attend this course to maximize line uptime.

This course also provides a great platform for those new to automation systems and state-of-the-art industrial electronics.

Objectives

Upon completion of this course, the student shall be able to:

• Use a Siemens PG or laptop PC to communicate with an S7 PLC system
• Commission a PLC system:
  • Main station
  • Remote station
  • HMI
  • Conveyor
• Examine and complete wiring diagrams for S7300 I/O modules
• Using a Multimeter, wire check S7300 main station and ET200S remote PROFIBUS station I/O modules
• Replace S7 hardware modules, update the hardware configuration and download changes to the PLC
• Diagnose and locate multiple hardware faults using module LEDs & STEP 7 diagnostic tools
• Troubleshoot various basic hardware station faults, module failures, communication faults and restore system operation to a running state
• Wire PROFIBUS DP and PROFINET (RJ45) connectors with corresponding cables
• Diagnose and troubleshoot instructor-set mystery faults with and without Organization Blocks loaded in the CPU
• Monitor the control logic for a PLC conveyor system making light modifications and simple code debugging
• Monitor, Modify and Force I/O
• Backup and restore an S7 project
• Complete an end-of-week comprehensive student project to reinforce and demonstrate learned skills
