THE WORKSHOP THE PROGRAM
Practical Data Communications and Networking DAY ONE DAY TWO
for engineers and technicians is a comprehensive
2-day workshop covering Industrial Data BACKGROUND TO DATA OSI - OPEN SYSTEM
Communications including RS-232, RS-422, COMMUNICATIONS INSTRUMENTATION MODEL
RS-485, industrial protocols, industrial networks Includes overview of: Includes:
and the communications requirements for • “Smart” instrumentation • Importance and application of OSI
“Smart” instrumentation.
• Modern instrumentation • Interoperability
This unique workshop equips you with the • Control systems • Industrial systems
tools to analyse, specify and debug Data
Communications and Networking systems in the BASIC PRINCIPLES INDUSTRIAL NETWORKING (LANs)
instrumentation and control environment, with Includes: Includes:
much of the material presented being derived • Sources, receivers & communication • Introduction and different philosophies
from many years of experience gained by the interface of LANs
workshop instructors. • Transmission modes • Industrial Ethernet
• Analog & digital signals • Token ring and bus systems
• Parallel & serial communications • Importance of TCP/IP
• Coding of messages e.g. ASCII • Selection, application and troubleshooting
• Data transmission speeds Industrial Ethernet
• Asynchronous & synchronous modes
STANDARD PROTOCOLS
WORKSHOP OBJECTIVES • Universal receiver/transmitter
Includes:
THE DATA COMMUNICATIONS • Concepts
In modern manufacturing and process industries, INTERFACE • Error detection
the challenge for engineers and technicians is to
Includes: • Industry standard protocols
make more effective use of modern control
systems and “Smart” instruments by linking them • Standards • ASCII, Modbus & Allen Bradley Data
together with Data Communication systems that • Principles of RS-232 Highway Plus
are correctly designed and implemented to fully • Handshaking
“SMART” INSTRUMENTATION SYSTEMS
utilise the available technology. • RS-422 and RS-485
Includes:
This Practical Data Communication and • Hardware & software testing
• Actuator Sensor Interface (ASI)
Networking workshop is designed to benefit SELECTION & INSTALLATION OF • Seriplex
instrumentation engineers, scientists and CABLES • Device Net
technicians who are involved in specifying,

instrumentation and control in the industrial • Interference & noise • Foundation FieldBus
environment, and who have little previous • Cable selection
SELECTION OF STANDARDS &
experience in Data Communications. • Installation recommendations
PROTOCOLS
This workshop has been structured to cover the MODEMS & INTERFACE CONVERTERS Includes:
main concepts of Data Communications, to Includes: • Field & instrument level
clarify their meaning and to describe their
• Modem control • PLC/PC level: practical case study
applications in a modern process and control
• Modulation techniques
system.
• Data compression techniques
When you leave this workshop you will:

network
““
• know how to effectively and systematically
troubleshoot FieldBus and DeviceNet systems
• understand the essential rules in designing and
installing these complex networks
““
Very instructive and
well presented workshop.
