purposes
Presentation format
The course features real-world applications and
uses a blended approach involving self-study,
interactive online webinars and homework
assignments with a mentor on call. The course
consists of 12 modules, over a period of 3 months.
Some modules may involve a practical component
or group activity. For each module there will be an
initial reading assignment along with coursework,
quizzes or problems to be handed in and in some
cases practical exercises. Participants will have
ongoing support from their instructor and
course coordinator.
Course reading material will be delivered in
electronic (PDF) format in advance of online
presentations. Presentations and group
discussions will be conducted using a live
interactive software system. Assignments will be
submitted electronically and wherever possible,
practical exercises will be conducted using
simulation software and remote labs.
live webinars
During the course you will participate in 6 live
interactive sessions with the instructor and other
participants from around the world. Each webinar
will last approximately 90 minutes, and we take
student availability into consideration wherever
possible before scheduling webinar times. for Engineers and Technicians (DC)
Contact us for details of webinar session scheduling.
All you need to participate is an adequate Internet
connection, a computer, speakers and, if possible, These eBooks are NOT required for the course – they are a bonus resource to aid you in your career.
a microphone. The software package and setup
details will be sent to you prior to the first webinar.
Please note: Webinars may last up to 2 hours
depending on student interaction and level of content.

danie stoop M Eng Electronics
Danie worked in industry for a year and then joined the same university’s School
for Electrical, Electronic and Computer Engineering as lecturer. In 1992, he began
his own electronic consultancy business named Dantron, which is an acronym
of his own name and the term “electronics”. In 1997 he won the University’s
VERKA competition for best lecturer in the Faculty of Engineering. During the
years he lectured, he conducted research in TCP/IP based digital communications
for which he obtained a Masters degree Cum Laude in 1999 and pioneered a
programmable logic laboratory, sponsored by Xilinx from the USA, amongst
others. Danie’s design experience includes many facets of electronic and embedded systems and
-programming for applications such as protocol converters between a variety of protocols.
During 2000, Danie moved over to the operations division of the university, where he gained extensive
operational and management experience. In 2011, Danie was awarded for the most innovative contribution
towards the Northwest University’s management systems and currently holds the position as Head of
Electrical and Electronic Services at the university. Here he gained extensive experience in specifying,
installing and maintaining a wide variety of corporate electrical, electronic and security systems.
Danie still engages in the academic world from time to time as external examiner or moderator. He is
currently enrolled in a leadership academy to further hone his management skills.

12 modules over 3 months
overview:
This course is for engineers and technicians who need practical and extensive knowledge of the design and
troubleshooting of Industrial Ethernet networks, as well as the selection, installation, and configuration of
components such as routers and switches.
It deals in-depth with the underlying TCP/IP protocols, and specifically addresses both design and
configuration issues related to IPv4 and the more recent IPv6. This course extends your skills and know-
how well beyond that covered in our fundamental courses in Ethernet and TCP/IP.
The course also covers the more advanced aspects and applications of Ethernet such as advanced
switching and routing, CCTV over IP, Modbus, Industrial Security, Intrinsically Safe applications, switched
rings (including the latest IEC 62439-3 redundant ring standard), and highly-deterministic Ethernet-based
field buses (e.g. for servo control) capable of 1 millisecond repetition rates and jitter of less than 1
microsecond. A strong, practical, hands-on focus with real equipment ensures you apply and test your
knowledge and skills.
Includes 4 free
Over 1400 pages of tables,
Reference Manuals charts, figures and handy hints
valued at over US$400
You will have access to 4 of our
up-to-Date technical eBooks.
• Advanced TCP/IP-Based Industrial Networking (AV)
• Practical Troubleshooting of TCP/IP Networks (TT)
• Practical Data Communications and Networking
• Practical Routers and Switches (including TCP/IP and Ethernet)
for Engineers and Technicians (RS)
All required reading materials will be provided electronically in smaller, easy-to-read sections, in the online student
portal throughout the course.
Please note: Students can also purchase the technical manuals both in hard copy and electronic format
at a reduced fee.

How we cover all this material
There is a considerable amount of useful practical material to cover in this three month course. To ensure you
get the maximum value from the course, we provide highly interactive tutorial-lecture sessions where the
instructor covers the key elements of the course in a web conferencing format which takes between 45 to 60
minutes with question and answer discussions taking a further 30 minutes. We recommend investing between
5 and 8 hours of study per week (including the live webinars) In addition, we provide detailed manuals, software
(depending on the topic), recordings and short videos, which you examine at your convenience. You will then
test your knowledge through a sequence of online quizzes and assignments. Throughout the course you will
receive ongoing assistance from your highly experienced instructor and dedicated eLearning co-ordinator who
are only an email or phone call away.
