With this upcoming project, since I am really a "C"/"C++" programmer and *not* a PLC/Ladder programmer, I would like to use Structured Text for my logic.
So just for the fun of it, I re-wrote a couple of ladder programs here in "C" just to see what they'd look like, and it turned out to be a thousand IF statements with some embedded PIDs and Timers (an oddball-looking program, I'd say).
Anybody here using Structured Text with ControlLogix? Can the entire thing be written in Structured Text, or do you still have to cross over to another model in order to use certain macros?
