Course Description

The goal of this class is to equip you with the knowledge required to develop your own HMI applications on FactoryTalk View Studio and deploy them into Machine Edition (ME).

We will start by going over the core features of developing HMI applications. These features include connecting to the terminal, setting up communications to a live PLC, developing multiple displays as well as an array of features on top of these displays. The core section will cover absolutely everything you need to know in order to get started building your own stand alone applications.

In the subsequent sections of the class, we will be going over a simple project followed by advanced features of HMI development.

The final section (currently in development) will provide you with a larger project which will leverage the core as well as the advanced features covered in the previous sections.

What are the requirements for the class?

  • You don't need any hardware or software to follow the lectures, however, it is highly recommended to get some practice before going into an interview (if that's your goal). If that's not possible, I would advise spending some time working with an emulator.

What can I expect from this class?

  • The main objective of this course is to get you job-ready by the time you finish the last lecture.

  • You will have a good understanding of what an HMI does, how it does it as well as what the outcomes of those actions are.

  • You will be comfortable creating basic HMI screen layouts and troubleshoot complex existing ones.

  • You will have a better understanding of manufacturing systems as a whole.

What is the target audience for the class?

  • Electrical Engineers looking for a crash course on HMIs.

  • Electrical Technicians / Electricians looking to expand their knowledge into controls.

  • Software Engineers who are seeking to learn about controlling hardware.

  • Manufacturing Operators looking to progress in their career.

  • Anyone interested in how manufacturing processes are executed.

It's a great course. It includes not just theoretical knowledge, but also practical experience, tips and tricks, and suggestions from years of using the product. I personally enjoyed the course because it kept me engaged and interested throughout. I really like that I purchased this course.

By Isaac Alejandro Torres Bravo on 11/27/2022

El curso es muy bueno, explica muy bien las herramientas para diseñar cada uno de los displays para las distintas aplicaciones en el HMI, así como da recomendaciones de diseño para aplicaciones mejores en el aspecto visual.

By Jeffrey Van Dyk on 9/17/2021

This is a very good course explaining the fundamentals of HMI Programming, particularly in FactoryView Studio ME edition. This course also covered some more advanced topics for HMI Design. The professor did a great job in explaining everything and I can tell that he is very passionate about this subject. I would have loved a section going over "Global Objects" as mentioned in the beginning of the course. This is something that my company is standardizing in that I would have liked to get more familiar with. That said, this course really helped prepare me for designing an HMI in a new system. Another course I would like to see from this professor is perhaps one describing the use of robotics, particularly the more popular ones in the industry such as Fanuc or MotoMan. Thanks and I will likely be taking more courses from this professor in the future.

Amazing! I love this course. The course gives the practical experience to use Factory Talk View ME software to design HMI. The course content is well explained and clear. Vladimir Romanov is a great Instructor. I salute! I very much enjoyed this course and would definitely recommend it to future students.

I enjoyed this course and appreciated the opportunity to learn FactoryTalk View Studio ME! Vlad did a great job presenting the course concepts in an easy-to-understand manner. I look forward to using what I have learned on future projects.

By Derek Bailey on 1/25/2021

The course far exceeded my expectations. The presenter did an excellent job from basic to advanced steps with careful scaffolding of the content allowing the learner to absorb the information. I will be definitely recommending the course to my colleagues and students. Exceptional value. I will also be revisiting the course to reinforce my knowledge on the topic.

By Mike McBee on 3/24/2020

Vlad is a great communicator for someone who has a basic understanding of what to do. If you are weak on the PLC side it might be harder to follow along, but if you are familiar with PLC programming, it is fine. I showed it to one of my coworkers to see if he could follow it, (NO Experience), he didn't understand it. Rewatching the training is extremely helpful!

By Louis Tan on 1/10/2020

It was great. I understand each steps well enough. Maybe you should add another course to really integrate PLCs and HMIs so that there would be a clearer picture of how to operate those two

By Elizandro Lara Duran on 10/17/2019

ha estado bien, el curso es MUY basico. Ayuda a repasar algunas bases. lo que no me agrada es que pierde mucho tiempo desviandose del tema principal y a veces repite mucho lo mismo. Tambien pierde tiempo con sus softwares que no funcionan bien.

By Eusebio Gil on 7/3/2019

Hey Vlad your awesome man!!! I loved your training course and expertise not to mention knowledge, I have advanced in my designing/application and I recommend this guy to anyone who wants to get from basic to professional level!!
