About this course

Engineering HIMax systems with SILworX

The HIMax system is programmed and configured using the SILworX programming tool.

The course starts with an introduction of system family HIMax and options for implementation and operation. Then the handling of SILworX will be discussed extensive in all major parts.
Here the participants will get a deep understanding starting with programming techniques via generation of project up to test and diagnosis possibilities. Also the implementation of safety requirements will be discussed in detail. Training will be supported by practical exercises using projects in HIMax systems.

Upon successful completion, every participant will be able to generate projects in SILworX and implement HIMax systems on-site and are able to independently engineer and operate the communication between HIMax systems and between HIMax systems and third-party systems.
