About Allen-Bradley RSLogix 5000 Industrial Maintenance and Fault Finding Professional (IMFFP) 3 Training Course
IMFFP® 3 is an advanced programme designed for engineers working with Allen-Bradley PLCs, HMIs, SCADA systems, and industrial networks. This comprehensive four-day course develops the specialist skills needed to build, configure, and troubleshoot complex automation environments using RSLogix/Studio 5000 and Inductive Automation’s Ignition platform.
The programme covers a blend of advanced PLC programming, HMI and SCADA development, and industrial communication technologies, enabling participants to work confidently with modern and legacy networked control systems.
Key areas include:
Installation and configuration of Ethernet/IP communication modules
DDE and OPC protocols for data exchange
Configuring data groups and communication tools
HMI and SCADA development using Ignition
Event-driven interfaces, alarm systems, and data visualisation
Industrial networking (DeviceNet, CAN, PROFIBUS, PROFINET, DH+, ASI)
Handling analogue I/O
User-defined data types, arrays, and advanced data structures
Indirect addressing and efficient programme organisation
