CPNI – Learning OutcomesVersion 2.0.01.Aims & ObjectivesAutomation and control system networks operate in a different environment and havedifferent performance requirements to office and IT networks. For example, factoryautomation or plant control systems are quite often installed in environments whereinterference from electrical equipment is present. Mechanical vibration, physicalimpact and exposure to corroding chemicals are also common hazards. Cable,connectors and other network components must be robust and protected against suchfactors. The requirements on network performance and reliability are also much morechallenging because the automation and control systems must operate for longperiods without any failure, disruption of communications or delays. For this reason, itis essential that industrial network installations are designed correctly and installed bysuitably trained and qualified people.This course aims to provide the theoretical knowledge and practical competence tolayout, install, test and maintain PROFNET networks in an industrial environment. TheCourse is suitable for those with no previous experience of networking or digitalcommunications. However, even experienced technicians can gain significantly fromtaking this course. The course provides a first stage of training course for those whoare involved with the installation, commissioning and ongoing maintenance ofPROFINET systems.The course provides an introduction to PROFINET terminology, operation andcharacteristics. It aims to provide a basic understanding of the problems that canoccur in high speed digital communication systems, their causes and solutions.The various rules and guidelines for PROFINET network layout and installation arecovered and practical techniques for implementing these are explored in a hands-onand practical wayThe course teaches how to make-up and test common types of cable and connectors.The common types of fibre-optic cables are also covered, but fibre splicing and testingis outside the scope of the course.Finally the formal installation qualification of a PROFINET network is discussed.

CPNI – Learning OutcomesVersion 2.0.02.Learning OutcomesThe following learning outcomes specify what candidates will know or be able to do asa result of successfully completing the training course. The learning outcomesconsists of a reference number, description and assessment mode. There are threekind of assessment modes: theory (T), practical (P) and demonstration/class exercise(C).The learning outcomes are grouped in two types of outcomes; supporting and taskoriented. Every paragraph in this chapter contains a group of learning outcomes. Thesupporting learning outcomes support the task-oriented learning outcomes and areabout concept discrimination, factual information and process explanation.Learning outcomeKind of outcomeTime(h)2.1 General PROFINET KnowledgeSupporting0.52.2 PROFINET Network InfrastructureSupporting12.3 PROFINET Cabling (Copper)Task-Oriented12.4 PROFINET Cabling (Fiber-Optic)Supporting0.52.5 PROFINET Signal transmission and pickupSupporting12.6 PROFINET Grounding and ShieldingTask-Oriented12.7 PROFINET Device IdentificationTask-Oriented0.52.8 PROFINET Installation QualificationSupporting0.5The learning outcomes are specified according the rules of the Bloom’s taxonomy(revised) and written with action verbs – see reference [6].
