PLC Programming using RSLogix 500: Basic Concepts of Ladder Logic Programming!;

Concepts of Ladder Logic Programming:This first book of the five book series, PLC Programming Using RSLogix 500, focuses on many practical aspects of machine logic programming. Based on Allen Bradley’s SLC 500 family of PLC’s, the author takes you through the basic concepts and instructions used in ladder logic programming.In Book 1 of this series, some of the topics will include:•The basic building blocks of the SLC 500 instruction set.•Discussion on Timers and Counters with example programming.•Location-defined and User-defined addressing and syntax.•How to configure a new PLC project.•How to establish a communication link between laptop & SLC 500 processor.•How to add Symbols, Descriptions, and Comments to your ladder logic program.•Understanding the different components of a PLC.•Understanding Input & Output modules and their critical functions.•How to understand and use the “Data File” tables.•Understanding the PLC’s scan routine.•Developing good programming techniques.The goal of this book is to provide a practical resource for those new to PLC technology and ladder logic programming; and to help you learn the necessary skills for doing your own programming and troubleshooting of PLC applications.
