I hope some of you can help me. I want ot set up an AB PLC test bed. My work wont offer any help with equipement, so I have ot fork out the money myself. We use SLC 500's and Micrologix (sp) controlers. Where would I find some of these parts (and the software) to be able to set up at my home? I am teaching myself the programing stuff by using the information and text books availible on the net. I am an electrician at a sawmill, and am well versed in ladder logic and motor controls, but I want ot perfect my programming before I take on the responsability for doing that. Any help would be appreciated.
I have noticed a lot of post about "free" stuff. I am not looking ot get anything for free, I just want some advice on the most economical solutions. I don't want ot spend hundreds of dollars on stuff that wont help me learn to program.
