G'day,
This is a followup post from my 'Programming Style' thread.
I have completed a draft guideline for programming PLCs for my company.
Due to interest expressed, I am posting a copy of it here, in MS word format.
Since it's a company document, I had to clear it with out IT section, and they made it a condition that I remove all references to the company.
I still need to polish it a bit, and fix up the appendices, but I don't anticipate changing it much.
I would like some feedback on it, if possible.
Mainly if you were a contractor bidding for a new machine or upgrade, what would your reaction to this document be?
Would it be helpful to you?
Could you use it against us?
How easy would it be to conform?
Would you want to do things a different way?
Would you rather lose business than follow the guideline?
One thing to note: our HMI is fixed (Citect - due to local product support and cause it's pretty good).
Also any other comments or pointing out glaring ommissions would be welcome.
Kind regards,
Doug
