Certification: Applied Principles of Smart Sensors

1377 Motor Parkway Islandia, NY 11749

This comprehensive course guides students through detailed project-oriented learning activities. Starting with the
basics of each sensor, students perform practical exercises in a simplified work environment, allowing them to
focus on smart sensors. Students can also connect these sensors to a PLC over PROFINET®, Ethernet/IP™ or
Modbus®, just like in industry. Once the fundamentals are mastered, more complex I4.0 learning systems such as
MPS, CP Lab, or CP Factory, offer further training opportunities: the wide variety of sensors integrated into these
systems allows students to put their knowledge into practice and deepen their understanding of the role of sensors
within a complete manufacturing system.
