PROFINET Troubleshooting & Maintenance

Register

The PROFINET Troubleshooting & Maintenance training course is fully concentrated on the technicians who install and maintain installations with this Ethernet based network technology. Ethernet is difficult to master due to the many abbreviations, IT concepts and terminology. Even the network components work against the grain compared to regular field busses. Measuring and troubleshooting are a considerable challenge that can result in unacceptable downtime.

Description

This training offers a complete set of knowledge that focusses entirely on practice to fill in the missing links of modern Ethernet networks using simple methods. The goal is to professionalize technicians in dealing with Industrial Ethernet and PROFINET. The participant learns how to analyze and solve a complex PROFINET breakdown using the necessary tools. 

The curriculum is underpinned by theory about network components, cabling, shielding and grounding. By means of practical exercises on real networks, the participants will put theory into practice. At the end of the training, the participants are directly capable to maintain and solve issues in PROFINET installations. They will have a strong theoretical foundation and are able to handle the necessary measurement tools, like Netilities. 

What is PROFINET?
PROFINET is an Industrial Ethernet standard for automation that includes plant-wide fieldbus communication, plant-to-office communication, and equipment-to-equipment integration. PROFINET can simultaneously handle standard TCP/IP and real-time transmissions at sub-millisecond speeds. Using proxy technology it easily connects to PROFIBUS; thus protecting the existing investments in plant equipment and networks.

OPTIONAL: Become a Certified PROFINET Installer!

What to expect?
If you have completed the ‘PROFINET Troubleshooting & Maintenance’ course, you can opt to take an additional exam to become a Certified PROFINET Installer in only half a day. The ‘PROFINET Troubleshooting & Maintenance’ course will give you a solid preparation for this exam.

Exam fee
Invest an additional €230,- to become a Certified PROFINET Installer.

Ready knowledge to solve independent faults

Because we have a duty to deliver, we can not afford to depend on third parties relating to maintenance and troubleshooting. Thanks to the training "PROFIBUS Troubleshooting & Maintenance" we now have ready knowledge and we can independently prevent and rectify errors.
