Welcome to the Forum, hardie.

Rockwell Automation has a particularly good general reference library, with every publication available free in PDF format.

http://literature.rockwellautomation.com

It would narrow things down if you specified a controller model or family, such as PLC-5, SLC-500, or ControlLogix.

You'll need a general hardware manual, an instruction set reference, and some manuals for the network architecture you're using. "PanelBuilder" is probably PanelBuilder32, for which there are User Manuals as well.

Start searching the RA Literature website, and post which hardware platforms you are interested in for more narrow advice on the recommended literature.

I'll trade you some information on programming analog I/O for a description of the controller family and hardware platforms you are interested in.

HARDIE

WHICH PLC ARE YOU USING?

We would love to help you, but until you tell us which PLC you're using, we don't know how to answer your question! Ken has tried twice to get that information, but you aren't providing it...

If you can't/won't provide that information, then you'll be on your own using the links provided in posts 2 and 3 above.

Hardie, in your browser shortcuts, save this link:

http://literature.rockwellautomation.com/idc/groups/public/documents/webassets/browse_category.hcst

From that page you can find all the manuals for 99.9% of the Allen-Bradley stuff since the beginning of time.

These manuals are musts for the SLC family of PLCs:
