Very nice video

[@ScantimeAutomationTraining]

Thanks

[@DrReginaldFinleySr]

Excellent video. Of course, baud and bps are not the same but I get your point.

[@ScantimeAutomationTraining]

Thanks for watching!

[@akshaypotdar1840]

Brilliant video, thanks. Could you possibly make a video about OBs for fault finding profibus slave devices, e.g comms failure due to wiring problem or salve device itself is down or rack failure?

[@ScantimeAutomationTraining]

Hi Akshay, this is actually covered on our training courses in more detail and we are currently looking at releasing a Networking online course which will also cover this!

[@samisrour3129]

Thx lot for this tutorial videos , I was very interesting with it and it is very clear ,,, can u put for s7-400 faile-safe

[@ScantimeAutomationTraining]

We don't have any FS PLC's at the centre at the moment unfortunately!

[@d.militomilito2002]

that's great! could you please make a video with TIA PORTAL please :)

[@ScantimeAutomationTraining]

We can look into this

[@usoroekwereessiet4397]

Hi please do you have knowledge of Triconex DCS or a video on it?

[@ScantimeAutomationTraining]

Unfortunately, we haven't had a chance to work with this DCS.

[@karanhariyani4163]

Could you please make video on scaling in s7 simatic manager & how to transfer data plc to plc.

[@ScantimeAutomationTraining]

We are looking to bring out a course on more advanced programming for the Siemens PLC including Scaling, we may release a teaser video for it!

[@kenwarren5732]

I'm trying to setup S7-1200 Profibus PLC to Anybus Communicator to control ESAB Aristo 1000 AC/DC Welding Machine. Have document ESAB PLC Integration guide. Purchased Siemens Starter Kit. Have Step 7 configured to TIA Portal. Not sure how to configure and send data word to energize welding machine. Not sure how GSD file works. Can you help?

[@ScantimeAutomationTraining]

Unfortunately, that would be a bit too complex and specific to cover in a video but our Automation Dept. may be able to help if you send us an email!

[@mahadihasan93]

How do select the baud rate?(34.40min) On the shop floor what should be the rule of thumb?

[@ScantimeAutomationTraining]

What device are you wanting to set the baud rate for?

[@lavenderflower5010]

At around minute 3:30-4:00 it looks like the dip switches for 4&2 were on.

[@ScantimeAutomationTraining]

This is just from the angle it appears

[@abdelfetahissellal5265]

I'm a bigenner in plcs but that awsome

[@ScantimeAutomationTraining]

Thanks!

[@jayespatra4285]

How to check the DO signal

[@ScantimeAutomationTraining]

Could you explain further?

[@omarsolorzano6155]

The dip switches at 3:56 indicate address 6

[@ScantimeAutomationTraining]

It looks that way however it's the angle, the first dip switch at the bottom is to indicate whether the Slave is to use the physical switches to assign the address of if it is being programmed. The next switch up is 1 and the switch above that is 2. This makes the address 3.

[@omarsolorzano6155]

@@ScantimeAutomationTraining thanks. Nice video 👍

[@sheena6393]

Could you pls remove background music .Your tutotirals are very informative.great job.

[@ScantimeAutomationTraining]

Thanks!

[@sadiodiallo4706]

Content interesting but I think it is better to remove the music sound , everyone can play its own music if they want

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!!
