Introduction To Programmable Logic Controllers (ST-PLCINTRO)

This document provides information on three training courses related to Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs). The first course (ST-PLCINTRO) is an introductory course that teaches basic PLC instructions through hands-on simulations. The second course (ST-SERV1) teaches installation, programming, and troubleshooting of Siemens S7 PLCs. The third course (ST-SERV2) focuses on more advanced programming techniques like blocks, analog processing, and troubleshooting software errors. All three courses are 5-day face-to-face trainings conducted in English.
