Hello all
i started my current job april this year where i became the companys Main electrical guy and plc programmer, before that i was in university where i covered some basic pls programming, control techniques/methods etc etc.
unfortunatley none of that crosses to the real world very well and i've learnt mostly from scratch, the good folks here and at mrplc have been very very helpful and i appreciate all the information people spend their time to share.
so my question is where can i expand my knowledge? i see alot of post talking about networking with IP, profibus,ethercat etc and i have no clue about this stuff and would like to know more.
fortunately (or unfortunatley) for me my company only uses omron PLC's and HMI's so i have become pretty good with their software, again i would like to learn a bit about other plc's i know they will be 80% the same from brand to brand but i cant imagine my cv looking amazing in 5 years and only having knowledge of one plc brand.
so with all that, where are some good places to start on alot of this knowledge? and thanks for all the help so far :site:
