• You’ll be able to use the programming tool Automation Studio and its help system.
• You’ll be able to configure hardware functions and set up CPU simulation.
• You’ll be able to configure the target’s network options and use Target Browser to find the target.
• You’ll be able to create, compile, and transfer project to target. Ladder Diagram will be the language of choice for the basic courses, but the instructor can provide pointers for Structured Text or ANSI C.
• You’ll be able to manage variable declaration and data retention.
• You’ll be able to use standard functions (e.g. compare and compute) and function blocks (e.g. timers and counters) in Ladder Diagram and create custom function blocks.
• You’ll be able to store project source code on the target.
• You’ll be able to utilize common Automation Runtime features, such as cycle time adjustment.
• You’ll be able to use Runtime Utility Center to back up and restore the CF card used by the target.
• You’ll be able to use System Diagnostics Manager, Runtime Utility Center, and Automation Studio to diagnose hardware issues and troubleshoot software bugs.
• You’ll be able to integrate basic visualization into a control project.
• You’ll be able to display visualization on a VNC client.
• You’ll be able to display and convert unit scaling in visualization.
• You’ll be able to change the display language and systematically update the translation.
• You’ll be able to program and activate touch screen calibration.
• You’ll be able to display the System Diagnostics Manager.
• You’ll be able to display webpages, such as user’s manual in HTML format, in visualization.
