Hi everyone,
I am new to this amazing world of PLC, well... I mean, in practice, since I already knew electronics, programming languages, IT, and some other stuff related. But, just like learning a new spoken language, it's not the same having the theory than applying it to the real practice.
I am currently working at a facility with a lot of old and obsolete equipment, and thank God everything is from Rockwell. My target is to upgrade all these control devices in order to standardize hardware and software.
My old equipment has SCL5/04 or 5/05 controllers and I am looking to replace them for Compaclogix, due to this looks to match what I need.
I already got some documents from Rockwell site, but sometime the information on them are either not clear or incomplete.
Following the recommendations of a former mentor, that used to say all the time 'R.T.F.M.', I won't ask for specific help of how to do something, but I will greatly appreciate your help on sharing some documentation or websites to take a read to it. Any advice is well received as well.
Well... Hope I can become a provider on this site and not only a requestor, one day.
