I have a Micrologix 1000 running AC Power. I have a trainer from plc-trainer.net. It is all DC and wired for a Micrologix 1500. I have a DC SUpply for the components, and i can successfully power up my Micro 1000. I was using the Micro 1500. But ran into the issue of having to purchase Rslogix. I was advised to instead save money and purcahse a micro 1000 to use with rslogix free version. I am a beginner. very interested in programming and automation. to get started i really need help getting the MIcrologic 1000 AC to work with my DC components. anyone have any ideas? the trainer includes 4 lights, 4 switches, 1 power switch all pre wired for DC with DC common. I really do not want to hook anything up without proper instruction or guidance. I appreciate any help i can get. and i do apologize for the newbie questions. But im just a nerdy guy desperate to learn how PLC's interact with real world objects and get started on programming. That i'm sure i will excel at. Thank you and be gentle lol haha.
