AVEVA EDGE TRAINING
The AVEVA Edge (Wonderware) course is a 4-day, instructor-led class designed to provide a fundamental understanding of the AVEVA Edge (Wonderware) software's features and functionality. The software enables users and machine builders to quickly create intuitive, secure, and highly maintainable HMI/SCADA applications for intelligent machines on various platforms, including Windows, Windows IoT, and Linux, as well as on low-level devices. The course provides lectures and hands-on labs to supply and reinforce the knowledge needed to use the software to develop an HMI/SCADA for a plant floor environment, using basic software elements. The HMI/SCADA applications will be developed using AVEVA Edge (Wonderware) software features, such as tags, classes, indirect addressing, animation, symbols, scripting, alarms, real-time and historical trending, reports, and recipes. The HMI/SCADA applications also will have connections to databases, including SQL Server, Oracle, and MySQL; AVEVA Historian; PLC drivers; and OPC UA. It will provide remote troubleshooting, remote client project security, and application backup. InduSoft users can use the InduSoft software during the class, but the manual will only address AVEVA Edge 2020.
