Hi!

I'm currently doing my internship in order to graduate in industrial computer science. I have to reprogram 3 Mitsubishi A1S plcs. I only had one course on plc programming and we used AB plcs and RSLogix, which i found rather easier to use than GPP-WIN (which I have to use now). Sadly, I work in a rather small company and there's no one to help me with that part of the project.

The program I have to do is fairly simple, but i'd like to get acquainted with the basic use of GPP-WIN. I downloaded the programming manual for MELSEC A/Q series, but it's quite heavy reading and I tend to get lost in it.

If any of you guys know of free "GPP-WIN / Melsec A programming tutorials", that would be great help for me. I'm not used to programming plcs, I almost only have experience on PCs (Java, C, C++, etc...). I'm absolutely not asking anyone to do the program for me, I want to do it myself, but some learning help would really be appreciated.

Thanks to all!
