Hi All,
I've been reading this forum for a while now and I just want to thank you for everything I have learned...some things, I have no clue what you are talking about, but hopefully I will sometime.
I work for a company in which I am in charge of the electronics of our plant as well as some electrical. I have started learning AB RSLogix and I understand it somewhat. I don't know all the commands but I can write a program that will do what I want it to do (make be a few extra rungs, but all is good). I have RSLogix 500 and Emulate installed on my computer here at the house. (I don't want to learn 5000 yet until I have a good grasp on 500) Also installed I have DeviceNet and ControlNet. I want to know what are good sources to learn these two packages. I have viewed alot of programs that have them, and I am not quite sure how to use it in my programs.
Eventually I want to get into the automation business. My Dad has been in this business for 18+ years now. Before I can go to work for him I have to finish my AAS degree in Electrical/Electronics and have 5+ years of field experince. As of now, I have 6 months experience. I came out of the computer programming field into this great field, and I must say I love it. Should've of gone into it to begin with!
Thanks for any help you all give me. I look foward to talking with you all more in the near future.
