S7 SYSTEM
SIMATIC S7 system S7-300 / 400Course type
Siemens STEP7 ClassicIntroduction
This course is aimed at employees with extensive experience in the field of PLC technology, but who have not yet had any experience with the controls from Siemens.Target group
This course is aimed at programmers or maintenance and service personnel. For the mentioned target group, the course of three days is an optimized combination of S7-BASIS and S7-SERVICE.Goal
Retrain experienced programmers / service technicians to SIMATIC S7. For the target group mentioned here, this three-day course is an accelerated alternative for S7-BASIS and S7-SERVICE.Content
- System overview SIMATIC S7
- Function of the SIMATIC S7 PLC
- Structure of a program
- STEP 7 basic programming package:
- General settings (authorization, language and PG / PC interface)
- Dealing with projects (create, modify, download and upload)
- Hardware configuration and symbolics, working online
- Delete PLC / memory cards, program
- Documentation options (commentary)
- Reference data (cross reference list, program structure, etc.)
- Test program (Debug / Status / Control / Forcing / Breakpoints)
- Set CPU clock, change operating mode, scan cycle times / memory usage
- addressing the I / O cards
- Reading diagnostic buffer with STEP7
- Troubleshooting hardware (hardware diagnostics with STEP7)
- Troubleshooting software (via diagnostic buffer and CPU stacks)
- Creation of a STEP7 project:
- Create hardware configuration, create symbol table, edit (data) blocks (use STEP7 Editor).
- Many practice exercises.

TR Service - Future-proof low-voltage panelRead moreTR-Service provides industrial maintenance using all disciplines, from electrical and mechanical to hydraulic and pneumatic. With support from Breemes, the company installed a large low-voltage panel. ‘After discussing my summary plan with them, I decided to just do it,’ says director-owner Raoul Tielens. At Breemes' suggestion, the panel was future-proofed by preparing it for power monitoring.

Peeters - Young Company, New EquipmentRead moreSince its founding a few years ago, Peeters Robotic Solutions has been rapidly developing, working on projects both domestically and internationally and providing standard solutions for industrial palletizing. The company stays up to date with the latest technology, including Festo’s electrical and pneumatic drives. To achieve this, it relies on itsme. “Thanks to their expertise and skills, we can bring innovation to the forefront for our customers.”
-
Kusters - Putting weight behind itRead moreKusters was looking for a weighing solution for its banknote devaluation machines that was easy to integrate into the Siemens control system. Through itsme, they came into contact with the right knowledge carriers at Siemens. ‘For us as Kusters, itsme is not only a supplier but also a source of knowledge, with which we co-engineer certain components and process steps, such as this weighing system.’

Eneco - Green light for green electricity and steamRead moreEneco Bio Golden Raand, located in the port area of Delfzijl, converts biomass into green electricity and green steam. Each year, the plant processes approximately 300,000 tons of waste wood from the Netherlands and neighboring countries. As part of Eneco’s climate ambitions, a project began in 2022 to replace the existing fluorescent lighting in and around the boiler room. The project was carried out under the supervision of itsme. “Two factors were important in this process: the cost, of course, but also the level of service.”
