For you
Taking Weintek HMI with EasyBuilder Pro from the United States
- Free in the United States, as everywhere, and self-paced: lessons, notes and the final assessment are open at any hour, so your time zone and shift pattern do not matter.
- The optional certificate for learners in the United States is a one-off US$23.99. What you get for it
- Plants across the Americas most often run Allen-Bradley, Siemens and Inductive Automation; each has its own free course to take next.
- See automation and engineering jobs in the United States, and what the industry looks like in Houston, Detroit and Chicago.
- EDWartens also has a regional site for the United States, for classroom training and local support: edwartens.com/us.
The course project 路 about 16 hours
Paddy dryer HMI on a cMT3092X: Modbus RTU register map, data sampling, event log and a moisture macro
Design, build, test and document an EasyBuilder Pro application for a jasmine paddy dryer: a cMT3092X talking Modbus RTU on one RS-485 line to a Delta DVP PLC and two Delta MS300 drives, screens on the ISA-101 hierarchy, an ISA-18.2 alarm list in the event log, data sampling with trends and backup, recipes per variety, a macro that turns the moisture sensor's raw word into a compensated percentage and a drying rate, users, and cMT Viewer for the owner's tablet. You deliver the project, your own register map and FAT record, and the hand-over note. The sample pack is what an integrator hands over.
Sample document pack, 9 documents, filled in for the scenario
- URSUser Requirements: Paddy Dryer DR-1 Operator Interface
- HMI specHMI Specification: Window Hierarchy and Window Specification, Dryer DR-1

A shareable EDWartens certificate
Finish every module and pass the final assessment, and the optional EDWartens certificate is yours. It carries a unique verification code on a public page anyone can check, so it stands up when a recruiter looks it up. See it below.
The course itself stays free whether or not you ever buy one.
Stuck? Ask a practising engineer
A free course usually means a comment section and hope. This one does not. Every module has an Ask-your-trainer panel that reaches the same engineers who teach our paid programme: people who commission panels for a living, not moderators.

Common questions
Is EasyBuilder Pro free?
Yes, a free download from Weintek with offline and online simulation, so the whole course runs without an HMI.
Which Weintek models are covered?
The MT8000iE/XE and eMT series through EBPro, and the cMT series including CODESYS and remote I/O.
Do the lessons apply to rebadged Weintek panels?
Yes. Many machine builders' own-brand HMIs are Weintek hardware programmed with EasyBuilder Pro.
Is the Weintek HMI with EasyBuilder Pro course really free?
Yes. Every module, practice task and assessment. You create an account so your progress is saved and the assessments can be marked. The certificate is the only paid item, and only if you want it.
What certificate do I get, and is it a Weintek qualification?
An EDWartens Certificate of Completion, issued when you pass the final assessment, with a verification code anyone can check. It is not a Weintek credential and is never described as one.
Who made the video lessons in the Weintek HMI with EasyBuilder Pro course?
The creators named in the Credits block at the foot of this page, on their own YouTube channels. EDWartens did not make the videos and the creators are not affiliated with EDWartens. What EDWartens wrote is the study plan, the notes, the practice tasks and the assessments.
How long does the Weintek HMI with EasyBuilder Pro course take?
Plan on about 24 hours in all, including the video lessons, notes and practice tasks. It is self-paced, so you work through the fourteen modules at your own speed.
