IEC 61499 is a new domain specific programming and modeling paradigm for design and development of truly distributed control systems for industrial automation.

In this course on HMI and SCADA development, you will get an hands-on training on building a simple HMI for a water heating tank example.

We will use the EcoStruxure Automation Expert tool by Schnieder Electric

Important Note: To get the full value out of our On-Line Training, we recommend you to contact your local Schneider Electric agency for a demo license of EcoStruxure Automation Expert. Flexbridge does not provide access to the tool used in this course.
