I have been programming for quite a while and have heavy exposure to all AB programming. I am also dangerous at GE, Modicon, and Klockner Moeller systems.
However, I have yet to tackle any Siemens units. Specifically S5 and S7's. Can someone tell me the level of programming differences on these systems? If one can fluently program using RSLogix5/500/and 5000, should this individual be able to pick up programming S5's and S7's easily?
I downloaded a couple of manuals from the Siemens Simatic site and it looks like the S5/S7 programming is more of a code/script base programming rather than the drag/drop style of the AB/Modicon style processors. Is this correct?
Thanks for any and all advice.
