Why does everyone hate Connected Components Workbench?
Are there legitimate reasons or is it just because most controls engineers are Luddites and terrified of change?
It has UDT/Structs, User-defined Function Block and User-defined Functions, and it has Tag Base addressing rather than requiring you to define addresses for things when you don't always need too.
Micrologix / RS 500 has none of this which makes it a mess to program complex and repetitive procedures/tasks
The UI of CCW seems a little clunky but I will take clunky of lack of modern features any day of the week.
