Certified PROFIBUS Engineer DP (Also available on-site for up to 8 people)
Engineers wishing to build their careers around PROFIBUS, companies wanting to benchmark their technical staff or consultants seeking a recognised professional qualification in industrial networking can now train for Certified PROFIBUS Engineer status.
Certified PROFIBUS Engineer Process Automation Module
Extra day for Engineers that wish to extend their knowledge and accreditation to include Process Automation. Must be booked in conjunction with Certified PROFIBUS Engineer course (above).
Certified PROFIBUS Installer Course (Also available on-site for up to 12)
An essential course for electrical engineers and technicians needing to upgrade their skills to include fieldbus installation. This one-day, hands-on course teaches the design, installation and testing of complete PROFIBUS networks including DP/FMS, PA and optical fibre technology. Covering bus layout and termination, grounding rules and practices, the course will teach delegates how to avoid common, but potentially expensive, installation problems.
PROFIBUS Commissioning Course (Also available on-site for up to 8 people)
A new one-day course designed as an add-on to the Certified PROFIBUS Installer Course. Covering the practical techniques of faultfinding on operational PROFIBUS networks. Techniques taught on the course include the use of a modern PROFIBUS analyser and Class-II master (engineering tool) to diagnose network faults, device faults and I/O problems. Students also learn how to use a soft digital storage oscilloscope in conjunction with these tools to diagnose and accurately locate cable, connection and device faults.
Basic PLC Programming Course
(Also available on-site for up to 8 people)
A new two-day course designed for those with no previous programming experience.
It covers basic ladder and function block programming and leads on to the Certified Open-PLC Engineer Course
Certified Open-PLC Engineer Training (Also available on-site for up to 8 people)
The PROFIBUS Competence Centre at Manchester Metropolitan University (MMU) in the UK has introduced a 3 day course covering Open-PLC programming using the international standard IEC 61131-3. The course is designed for Engineers and Technicians who want to gain a recognised qualification in open-PLC programming using IEC 61131-3. No prior experience of PLC programming is necessary; however, the course is also equally well suited for experienced Programmers who wish to move to IEC 61131-3 compliant systems.

Practical Aspects of PROFIBUS PA in Process
This seminar addresses the key practical issues arising from the use of digital fieldbus communications technologies in process and hybrid industries. Covering the use of PROFIBUS PA in key application areas such as
Pulp & Paper, Chemical, Utilities, Pharmaceutical, Oil & Gas
today
, it focuses on the practical aspects of using PROFIBUS in process industry applications from system design and hazardous area considerations through to maintenance and fault-finding. Supported by live demonstrations of actual tools used in calibration and maintenance, the programme will be of great value to Instrument Technicians/Engineers, C&I Engineers and System Engineers involved in design, operation and maintenance of modern process plant.
PROFIBUS Consultancy
The PROFIBUS Competence Centre at Manchester Metropolitan University also offers a range of services for PROFIBUS users including on-site consultancy and fault-finding. Contact
