I have worked on PLC's for several years purely on a maintenance basis (What's wrong, There it is, Now it's fixed).
I have recently started working for a company writing software from scratch, and additions to existing PLC code.
Are there any generic popular coding conventions, such as:
1. Critical Interlocks.
2. Auto Interlocks.
3. Manual Interlocks.
4. Plant Healthy.
5. Plant Enabled.
6. Drive Logic.
At the moment, until I obtain a degree of confidence over a period of time, I am having to learn cold turkey fashion.
I whole heartedly understand that it varies from application to application. But any tips for a relative newbie to project programming from scratch would be much appreciated.
Cheers in advance.
