Courses to network technologies and bus communication

Available courses


Complete course with lectures, exercises, laboratory practical and projects totaling 45 teaching hours. The course is based on the textbook "Networked Systems in Automation 4.0" ( in German). The course uses PLCnext as device technology and MQTT as communication protocol.

Target group: Master students, possibly also Bachelor students in their last year of study.

Course language: English
Among the many pedagogical strategies for improving students' motivation, life skills, and know-how, project-based pedagogy is often cited as an example. It is in this context that a challenge entitled "New digital processes for the plant of the future" was launched in 2019 for engineering students learning the specialty "mechatronics and robotics". Seven teams are drawn at random and made up of …

This tutorial allows to teach to do a communication between a PLC programmed with PC WORX and a simulation software, Factory IO, via an OPC server provided by Cogent DataHub. For this, the goal will be to blink 8 LEDs with a start button and a stop button. These buttons and LEDs will be located directly on the board and virtually in the Factory IO software.Communication_Test_PLC_programmed_with_P…
This tutorial teaches how to communicate programming software (PC WORX) and automated system simulation software (Factory IO) via a PLC and an OPC server provided by Cogent DataHub. The main purpose of the system is the management of analog inputs/outputs, in addition to conventional digital inputs/outputs. Indeed, the system has a vision sensor that returns analog information depending on the mo…
This tutorial allows you to learn how to perform a sort of package followed by a pick and place in an automated systems simulation environment (Factory IO). Communication between the computers and the PLC is managed by PROFINET (Ethernet). An OPC server is used to bridge the programming software (PC WORX) and Factory IO. The choice of a set with 2 systems results from a desire to test the connect…
Wireless networks are divided into the following classes: - Cellular networks WWAN (Wireless Wide Area Network);- Wireless LAN (WLAN - Wireless LAN); - Wireless sensor networks (WSN).In industrial automation, three types of wireless networks are most widely used: Bluetooth based on the standard IEEE 802.15.1, ZigBee based on IEEE 802.15.4 [IEEE] and Wi-Fi based on IEEE 802.11. The physi…
