DMC Is Ignition 7.9 CORE Certified

DMC is excited to announce that we are now Ignition 7.9 CORE certified. Project Engineer Elizabeth Hill passed the Ignition Core Certification exam designed to test understanding and knowledge of Ignition. The test covers Ignition architecture, real-time status and control, historical data logging, UDTs and templates, and alarming.

Testing & Certification

The test itself consists of two parts and takes an average of eight hours to complete.

Part one, Troubleshooting Prompts, requires the test takers to correct issues with an existing project by loading an Ignition Gateway backup into any Ignition 7.9 version. They must then identify and fix the problems, providing documentation with a description of each issue and its solution.

Part two, Development & Implementation, requires that testers implement a project according to a customer’s specification and submit a single Ignition Gateway backup (.gwbk).
