Aim of this course is to supplement the associated lecture by providing a basic introduction to practical applications for selected topics, including:
The first part of the course deals with programming a very basic system built from standard industrial automation components, which comprises a PLC connected to several sensors/actuators via ASi.
The second part extends the solution from part one with a Human Machine Interface (HMI). By using a touchpanel process data as well as historic data will be visualized and the process flow can be influenced.
In the third part, basic communication between microcontroller-boards connected via a CAN-bus will be implemented.
Estimation of effort: 4 ECTS, amounting to about 100 work hours.
Note: Lack of previous knowledge (see below) may increase the total effort considerably.
Specifics will be announced on the TUWEL course page during October.
This enrollment is for the course. Additionally, starting from Oct. 8th, you need to register for one of three groups (on the Tab 'Groups'), each of which has a particular timeslot associated with it. Presence is in your timeslot is not mandatory; however, during your timeslot you will have precedence over students enrolled for a different group.
The student has to be enrolled for at least one of the studies listed below
Apart from basic C/C++ programming skills, knowledge and skills taught in preceding courses will be at least partially required, in particular:
