Automation Studio is used to configure and program all B&R controller components. Core issues such as getting a clear overview of all product groups, initial commissioning of a controller, understanding the functions of the runtime environment and being familiar with the options for integrated configuration and diagnostics are decisive.
This lesson is the prerequisite for many follow-up seminars.
All exercises are performed in an Automation Runtime Simulation (ARsim). Use of a X20 PLC is an advantage.
