Looking for Free (if possible) online training

for the major plc's. I'm comfortable with slc 500 series and plc 5's.
This week I was asked to help with a koyo dl250-1, and while I got it to do what I wanted, I'd rather not be learning on the job.

Aside from that: Siemens (there are a couple of different series), and the compactlogix controllers...they look like they'd be a blast to play with.


But I'd rather play on my own time, and not while on their time.


Also.. what would be a good programming package to get for the siemens and compactlogix controllers? I'm primarily a troubleshooter, but with the 500's I've done extensive editing and have written numerous routines, some of which I utilize dde to read tables..



Thanks in advance..

Have you seen Bernie Carlton's AB to AD compare page? It's made for the AB guy that needs some AD help.

Russ,

Another freebee would be this thread by Ron Beaufort.

Thank you! I really enjoy working with the slc 500's and plc 5 series, and am happy to be given the opportunity to work on other controllers.
They're a lot of fun.
