In this book I provide the foundation you will need to begin writing your first ladder logic program using RSLogix 500. I also provide advanced and practical hands-on training you need to program Programmable Logic Controllers (PLC) with confidence.

It is simply not enough to have a PLC user guide/manual, or refer to the help content in order become a skilled PLC programmer. This book is a great resource for learning PLC programming skills. It will give you a head start if this is your first time programming a PLC. It will also teach you advanced techniques that you can use to design, build and program anything on the RSLogix 500 platform.

Using real-world situations and industrial applications is the best way to learn PLC programming. This book contains real-world examples and industrial applications that will help you to quickly learn many functions and features of RSLogix 500.

The methods I present in this book are the ones that are most commonly used in industrial automation. They may be all you ever need. This book is a valuable resource for anyone who is just starting out in PLC programming, as well as any other skilled programmer of PLCs, regardless of their level.

One of the most frequent questions I get from beginners is, "Where can I download RSLogix 500 for free?" Later in this book, I provide links to free versions of RSLogix 500 and RSLogix Emulate 500. So, to learn, run and test your ladder logic programs, you don't need a PLC.

You will not only learn how to obtain the Rockwell Automation software without any hassle. I also demonstrate with clear screenshots how to configure, navigate, and use them to create ladder logic programs.

PLC (Programmable Logic Controller) is the most common controller. It uses a programming language called Ladder Logic. To make programming easy, especially for people who already understood how relay contacts, switches, and coils work, the ladder logic language was developed. The format of ladder logic is similar to the electrical style of drawing, and is popularly known as the “ladder diagram”.

At the onset, there were only a few functions available in the language, but with time, many higher-level functions were introduced. You are going to learn the basic commonly used functions first, and then learn the advanced ones. We have various types of PLCs and also differences among PLCs, but what I discuss here is common to all types. Are you ready to start learning now?
