You might get lucky here but would be better off joining the Citect users group. Lots of people there, including Citect people, that have been programming it for years.

How do you interface with citect ?? do you use the CtApi interface ??

Not normally. Some use OPC but most use drivers specifically for the PLC brand they use.

For example, I normally use Omron and use the Omron FINS Gateway driver with Citect for serial, Controller Link, Sysmac Link or Ethernet. The driver is free from Citect.
