Creating the Ultimate Automation Training Setup - Part 2
Previously, we learned that only 31% of businesses have fully automated at least one function (McKinsey). There is a massive demand for automation and creating training environments. Using the machine simulator, we utilized the Modbus TCP (Ethernet) Server in the "Easy Transfer Line." This is just one of many pre-built scenes, or you can design your own for your industry. This set the stage for the Productivity PLC Simulator to communicate and control the line. We programmed the PLC, tested, and monitored our system. We will now add a human-machine interface (HMI) to our system. Modifying the PLC logic to accommodate the controls from the touch screen, we will add a C-More CM5 unit. This HMI will communicate with the productivity PLC simulator and the easy transfer line machine. This will create our ultimate automation training environment. Let's get started. Our website post provides effortless access to all the relevant links discussed in the video. We have gathered all the necessary information for your convenience, to all the resources mentioned. https://accautomation.ca/creating-the-ultimate-automation-training-setup2/ 00:00 Creating the Ultimate Automation Training Setup Part 2 01:15 PLC / HMI Program Development 02:32 Modifying the Productivity Suite PLC Program 04:54 Modify the C-More CM5 HMI Program 09:04 Download and Test the HMI program in our Ultimate Automation Environment The EasyPLC Software Suite Series can be found here... https://accautomation.ca/series/easyplc-software-suite/ Some previous posts include the following: EasyPLC Installing the Software https://accautomation.ca/easyplc-installing-the-software/ https://youtu.be/EbWS_elbI2w EasyPLC Quick Start Software Suite
