Course Description

This course covering FactorytalkView SE Training Connecting to RSlogix/Studio5000 PLC's using Factory Talk Studio Software is for any of you who require the knowledge to create and maintain a Factorytalkview SE project and be familiar with all the tools available. This software is an HMI software used for operating and controlling operations across all aspects of industry and entertainment. It is especially suited to interface with RSLogix5000 PLC programs but is not limited to this. It is extremely user friendly and versatile and for me, it is the HMI I would use over and above anything else if at all possible.

I shall be your instructor during this training and I have had many years practical experience creating projects and programming PLC's, HMI's, commissioning and face to face training. I also possess a SAQA Further Education and Training Certificate: Measurement, Control and Instrumentation. This is South African but recognized in many countries internationally.

The course will start by introducing you to Factory Talk View Studio and the Factory Talk Directory

Then we shall create our first project.

the factory talk directory can connect the hmi server to both local and network. the standalone can be HMI sev=rver and ffunction as local. if network is choosen, then mulitple HMI server can woro on project developmen. if local is used only the standalone project can develop the application.

Great learning, since rockwell ftview current version is 13, this course needs some migration from old version to new version changes.

By Amit Pandey on 10/7/2021

1. Include the software download and installation section. 2. Update the lessons to latest rockwell version 3. Can be made like developing a real project step by step. e.g. Mixing tank project or Ventilation control or Temperature control application, right from scratch step by step. With defining popups, global objects, tags, alarms etc. 4. One dedicated section for global objects and popups with parameter passing can be included. 5. Please include a section for REPORTS. Import/Export of tags in Excel and generate reports in customized format. 6. Include a section for the licensing information 7. Include one example for redundant server system. 8. One real example of showing Client PC configuration. How the overall architecture networked and machines configured.

I'm a plant maintenance guy and I had to dumb my way through learning what I could of this system. I wish I had this earlier. Wonderful content. Thank you sir.

Instructor was great looks like he had a lot of real world behind him.

By david Guillet on 7/16/2018

Great course, I used this as a learning and refreshing course. I have some experience working with HMIs but I have never been trained on them. I learned a lot. Only thing that I would change is to include a practice assignment at the end of each lecture to help re-enforce what was just learned. great course, I'm going to continue with more now.
