From my short experience in this field I coul advise you think in the kind of project that you're making.

Basics of PLC's could be found easily on the web, looking in google. There you can find some good web sites as well as .pdf files or manuals. Why don't you try putting in the browser: "PLC manual", "PLC tutorial". Now if youw want to understad a little more I could recomend you the software Automation Studio 5. There you can "draw" the field elements like actuators, motors, valves, pumps and then can "draw" some kind of logic like "ladder" or "grafcet" and then turn on the simulation and look the thinks to happend... that's funny.

In the other hand if you're involve in a real industrial projec I recomend you to look the web site from your PLC family provider. I don't know wich could be, for example AB, ABB, Siemens, Toshiba, Festo...? They usually bring free acces to manuals and tutorials in wich you can read about instalation and configuration details.

Good Look

Hey thanks a lot Buddy good move at this data you provide, much appreciated. I do was looking to see if that is true that, I can get a real good PDF for free ? Since, the other day, I was trying to get one of them in my compu but all of the sudden during the attempt to download that my compu start acting out, so I decide to cancel download been afraid that it would break down the compu. Any suggestion I also will like to have a WinZip and FPT programs in my compu but then again I'am afraid those for free programs will harm out my compu big time, I don't know, If you get a chance let me know a little bit more about it whenever you find out a chance. Allset folks have some fun then.

You Have The Tech...

What brand and flavor?

Allen-Bradley has a reference manual for the system that we use. More than likely the manufacturer of your (proposed) system has one also.

Just don't buy one from a guy who designed it all out of his garage, worked on one of those once and what a pain that was. Big difference when I changed jobs and had the chance to work on 'real company' plc program.

good luck and have fun!

Have a lok at Entertron Industries, specialising in PLCs for OEMs since 1978. Capability for PLC configuration/design to meet application requirements instead of standard out-of-box. Free relay ladder logic programming software can be downloaded and it may help you with general understanding.
