Manchester Metropolitan University (MMU) and the AS-Interface UK trade association are to run a series of training courses aimed at producing certified AS-i engineers.
Manchester Metropolitan University (MMU) and the AS-Interface UK trade association are to run a series of training courses aimed at producing certified AS-i engineers.
The one-day courses will take place at the MMU's Fieldbus competency centre within the Engineering Department with delegates learning both the theory and practice of AS-i.
Using a hands-on, practical approach engineers will learn how to use AS-i intelligent sensors, actuators and remote I/O in the most efficient and effective way, and see how to integrate AS-i into higher-level fieldbuses.
Delegates will build, configure and exercise their own AS-Interface system from scratch.
The course also includes an overview of the AS-i "Safety at work" profile which allows AS-i networks to be used in safety-critical systems such as emergency stop and machine protection systems.
High standards of competency are ensured by written and practical tests.
Successful graduates will receive a "Certified AS-i Engineer" certificate.
The course is designed for engineers and technicians who are involved in the planning and installation of fieldbus networks.
No previous knowledge of AS-i is required.
However, even experienced fieldbus engineers will gain valuable knowledge on how to get the best from the technology.
The first training course will be on the 20th March 2003.
The course costs GBP 375 per person.
