Before I ask the question, let me preface it by saying that I came from the DCS world to the PLC world. I am used to tags and logic based off of the tagnames. Now for the question;
In hiring out your PLC work, is it pretty much up to the individual doing the work to organize logic into the format requested, or is it just pot luck?
I am asking because I am troubleshooting ladder logic, and I am not following it too easily. Part of the problem is that out of 20 controllers I have looked at, there are about 10 different styles of logic used. Also, I am used to having a PIC100100 and a PI100100 and Logic assocoated with it at INT_PIC100100 or a run indication like MI100100.
I have been happy to find a program or 2 grouped in such a fashion, but not as a standard.
Any thoughts?
