I am new to the Allen Bradley products and would like a quick tutorial on how to use RSView. I have built my ladder logic in RSLogix, can connect to it with RSLinx and have installed RSView. Now, when I create a button or motor or whatever in RSView, how do I connect this to my PLC so that it controls the PLC or updates what is happening on the PLC?
 
You might also try Rockwell's knowledgbase aritcles. You can find lots of helpful little bits of information there that you won't find in the manuals. The suppliers that we purchase our controls equipment from also have their own support staff and can get us in touch with the manufacturers support people when needed. Lean on your suppliers, that's part of what they are there for.
 
any ideas where I might find the user manual for RSView Studio Machine Edition? It seems to work somewhat different from RSView32 (I think anyways) and that is what the above link gets me to.
 
RSView Enterprise Series user manuals are installed along with RSView Studio.

There's a link to them right from inside RSView Studio, by selecting Help -> Online Books -> User Guide Volume 1 & 2.

You can find them directly in the RSI program files directory:

C:\Program Files\Common Files\Rockwell\Help

What I would suggest is to sign up for a free 5-day trial of the Rockwell Web-based training. There are three short RSView ME classes that can get you started down the right path.

Here is a link to sign-up:

Also, contact your distributor and ask them for a copy of the RSView ME Software Procedures Guide. It's a manual provided when you attend a class and is definitely a good starting point when you combine it with the web training.

Would you believe there's a tutorial on youtube. Go to youtube and type in RSview. Will show you comms. Rpax
 
Once you register you will receive a confirmation email with a username and password, there is also a Getting Started Guide I hope this helps!
The courses are located at Rockwell.itz.net once you have the username and password.
