Ladder logic

This is pushing the ashtray a bit but I thought what the hell.

Is there anyone on the bbs who's good with RSLogix 5000? I'm trying to locate a GOOD reference manual. The help files in the program suck (of course). I'm getting pretty good at it but I need a bump to figure out how it manages subroutine procedure calls and other program functions.

Thanx

I know some ladder common sense - don't place heavy things on the top, don't stand on the top rung, and don't walk underneath them.

We use it at work. I have very limited experience with it though....

I'm getting pretty good with it but I can't seem to grasp the structured text instructions yet. It's odd because structured text is all I've ever really done in terms of C and VB. There's some tweaks involved that make the language slightly different though. What I'm really trying to find is a syntax guide and structured text instruction set.

Hey, what type pf programming are you doing. The company I work for uses mainly seimens and allen bradly but I specialize in seimens so I cant help you personally. I know alot about step7 but some guys at work would know about rslogic. I can check with them sometime.
