FactoryTalk View ME (Machine Edition)

FactoryTalk View (RSView) ME Level 1(Desktop Version)
Course Length: 32 Hours
Maximum Participants: 10

Prerequisites: A basic understanding of a window-based operating system is required. Students who attend this class should also have a good understanding of PLC ladder logic and addressing.
Software Used: Windows 7 operating system with FactoryTalk View ME Studio, and FactoryTalk View ME Runtime, and Studo/RSLogix 5000
Course Description: This 32 hour course is designed to give the students the ability to troubleshoot, create, and deploy Factory Talk&reg View ME projects on industrial terminals. At the end of the class students will understand how to trace objects on the RSView terminal through a PLC program, modify existing objects on any display, and create new objects when needed. We will use the PLC of your choice for the training: SLC-500, PLC-5, or ControlLogix. Students who attend this course will not only troubleshoot objects, but actually configure them so they will have a full understanding of what it takes to make an object interface with the PLC.
