Description
Our trainers teach the participants in a virtual classroom. Each participant works with a simulated, fully functional virtual model (digital twin). Following this way, the participants are encouraged to interactively build up their knowledge. A laptop with a stable access to the internet is needed for this training. Ideally equipped with a second screen. Get to know the manufacturer-independent industry 4.0 interface of OPC UA an MQTT. This course provides you to most important knowledge of OPC interfaces (Classic and Unified Architecture) and MQTT. You will not only learn the handling of OPC Server and clients, but also how to diagnose and fix interface errors. You will get an overview of communication options on the OPC and MQTT interface. In this course, you will create your own interfaces and companion specifications. You will learn the different functionalities and methods of OPC and MQTT. Based on examples, you will get an overview of OPC and MQTT Clients programmed in a high-level language. We also show you the OPC security settings and how to set up a secure data exchange. The theoretical knowledge will be deepened by practical exercises on a plant model. After completion of the training, you will be able to set up and configure OPC servers, connect diverse OPC clients such as WinCC, Excel (VBA), C# with .NET Framework, to a server and put them into operation or make changes to them. You will be able to import data from the automation world into your personal computer and analyze them. Become a requested expert in OPC UA and MQTT with Grollmus.
