Certified AS-i Engineer course
Also offered by MMU and bookable through The PROFIBUS Group is this two-day course that teaches the theory and latest practice of the Actuator Sensor Interface. Using a hands-on, practical approach, you 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 fieldbus systems. You will build, configure and exercise your own AS-interface system from scratch.
The course covers the latest V3.0 specification and techniques for interfacing AS-i networks to higher fieldbus networks like PROFIBUS and Industrial Ethernet. The course also includes an overview of the AS-i safety at work profile. Successful graduates will receive a Certified AS-i Engineer certificate.
