Hey guys, im kinda new at this so please bear with me. I'm trying to learn all there is to know about HMI, how to set it up, what resources i need ahead of actually programming it, and i cant seem to find any reliable sources to start from. I am using the Allen Bradly factory talk view and would appreciate any help to get me started on the right track.

Thanks in advance.
 
Hi and welcome to the forum.

I learned by just starting to add things to my program, and when I run into trouble search the web for solutions. My biggest hurdle was to get my tags into FT View.

Are you using AB PLC or another brand?
