Thanks a lot!

[@makindeolalekanmonsuru5349]

Wow, thank you very much

[@ScantimeAutomationTraining]

You are very welcome

[@kream770]

this might help me land my regular government automation maintenance job tommorow, I assume all the programming is not needed but I'm getting the hang either way, I'll focus a lot more on debugging and diagnosing problems, I've got experience in programming so I just gotta see how the jigg is done by Siemens, so far pretty straight forward, I'm hoping the simatic 7 program has a simulator it would help me alot I'll try to use it otherwise I'll have to rely just on the videos thank you man I'll update if I remember

[@ScantimeAutomationTraining]

Hope all went well with your interview! If you ever want to attend a hands-on course with us, let us know.

[@paolorodriguez2640]

Thankyou so much mate

[@ScantimeAutomationTraining]

No worries

[@Nouryas]

Salam Alikom , you are amazing ,, go on brother

[@ScantimeAutomationTraining]

Thank you 🙌

[@ryanowens100]

I use to work for Siemens mobility, wish this video was around back then

[@ScantimeAutomationTraining]

Well it's here now :)

[@firashamdan4175]

very good

[@ScantimeAutomationTraining]

Thank you! Cheers!

[@esmaeilsiahpoosh7999]

Tanx very good

[@ScantimeAutomationTraining]

Most welcome

[@LorryDuckie22]

Hello, Great video but couldn't understand why you chose Mbit instead of input ?

[@ScantimeAutomationTraining]

Just so we could modify the bits without needing to Force them.

[@ryanowens100]

Can anyone explain what the differences between step7 & Tia are?

[@ScantimeAutomationTraining]

STEP7 is more used for the older S7-300/400 PLCs while TIA is more used for the newer S7-1200/1500 PLCs

[@abderaawofshaibi9571]

I have question: how do I establish network connection between my laptop and PLC?

[@ScantimeAutomationTraining]

Would this be via Ethernet?

[@miyau09]

Very Educative, please can i have private lesson on sicam Ak3.

[@ScantimeAutomationTraining]

Thank you!

[@md.ashfaquealam2925]

How to take DI in trends in step 7

[@ScantimeAutomationTraining]

Not sure i fully understand what you are looking for?

[@sadsad220]

the courses are perfect but they expensive compared to udemy , please consider a higher discount rate

[@ScantimeAutomationTraining]

We try to value our courses ethically, our courses not only provide course material, but also provide industry recognised certification, course tutor access and guidance, remote access to real programming software packages and PLCs, we believe this is what sets our training apart

[@mattdeboth5586]

Where can I get the Step 7 software to start learning?

[@ScantimeAutomationTraining]

You can get this from a Siemens supplier :)

[@earthrelated]

great video but hard to follow due to LOW RES

[@ScantimeAutomationTraining]

Sorry about that, i believe the videos are all HD however

[@Gonzo-ed8xt]

Very enlightening, but why the music and why do we need to see the presenter's face instead of the presentation?

[@ScantimeAutomationTraining]

We like to have a more personable feel to our videos

[@henrybartlett1986]

Excellent presentation. However, the subliminal disturbance of the unnecessary background music needs addressing.

[@ScantimeAutomationTraining]

Noted

[@VoeViking]

It would be easier to build te project using and arduino and programming it from scratch, and cheaper too.

[@ScantimeAutomationTraining]

Possibly but then we couldn't make a Siemens STEP7 Professional video.

[@jmbcrp1010]

I will never play along with the monopoly of Allen Bradley and Siemens, whoever wants to make these companies richer welcome, I have had projects for more than twenty years working and making upgrades with PLCs from different brands, they do the same!!! More economical!! And even in some cases, better functions such as Rest API, OPC UA, it seems like a robbery to me that just by checking a box on the portal they charge you 1000 dollars just to enable OPC UA, that's it!!

[@deepakshukla6152]

ur video is nice but its useless becaz of your photo hiding various details.from next time dont insert ur own video in any tutorial

[@ScantimeAutomationTraining]

People like to see a person, gives it more of a personal feel
