This hands-on course equips technicians, automation engineers, and programmers with the essential skills to design, configure, and deploy effective Human-Machine Interfaces (HMIs). You will learn to create intuitive interfaces that enhance operator efficiency, monitor industrial processes, and improve data accessibility.This course provides complete training in developing professional, intuitive, and efficient HMIs for industrial systems. Learn to create interfaces that improve operator control, visibility, and productivity.
- Design and development of Human Machine Interfaces (HMI).
- Linking PLCs, sensors, and actuators with real-time visualization.
- GUI design for process monitoring and control.
- Advanced SCADA-HMI communication.
In This Course You Will Be Able To:
- Develop custom HMI dashboards.
- Connect HMIs with PLC/SCADA systems.
- Implement alarms, trends, and security layers.

- Introduction to HMI SystemsEstablish a foundational understanding of HMI's role in industrial control. This module covers the difference between SCADA and HMI systems, the various types of HMI hardware (panel-mount vs. industrial PCs), and the best practices for structuring an interface based on the Nuremberg Principles (high-performance HMI design).0
- Interface Design and ConfigurationMaster the graphical tools to create functional and engaging screens. You will learn to use HMI development software to create navigation structures, configure objects (buttons, indicators, gauges), manage screen transitions, and effectively utilize color and layout to ensure high situational awareness for operators.0
- PLC Connectivity and Tag ManagementBridge the HMI with the machine's brain (the PLC). This section focuses on establishing reliable communication drivers (e.g., Ethernet/IP, PROFINET) and efficiently importing, creating, and managing PLC tags (or variables). You will practice linking HMI objects directly to these tags for real-time data display and control.0
- Advanced Visualization and Security FeaturesImplement sophisticated functions for data management and access control. This module covers the configuration of alarm systems (history, shelving), historical data logging (trending), and implementing user authentication and role-based security to protect critical operations and ensure compliance.0
- Final Project: Industrial HMI SimulationApply all learned skills to a complete, real-world scenario. You will design and deploy a fully functional HMI interface for a simulated industrial process (e.g., a pumping station or packaging line), demonstrating connectivity, data trending, alarming, and security features.0
