How to Program PLCs FASTER
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 2 окт 2024
- I can write a PLC program in days that will take another programmer a month or longer. What's my secret? It's all in the way I lay my program out and what order I do things. Time is money, and the faster you can turn out programs, the fatter your wallet.
This is a helper video for PLC programming students of mine. To check out my courses, visit my automation training website:

Just a quick comment to thank you about your level 1 course on udemy ! Bought it in 2012 if I recall and got a job as a programmer in 2015 and I'm now an electrical & automation manager 👍 back in that time there were not many resources about the subject on the internet and I truly believe I wouldn't be at the level I am at today without it 👍 thanks man hope you're doing great !
Way to take the ball and run with it! Sounds like you're really on a great path with a bright future ahead. Nothing could make me happier!! 🔥🔥
I bought the level 1 course a few years ago , but have really got into it recently. Really enjoying it!! Easy to follow and understand!! (after re-watching a few videos :)
I am new to programing. You use B3 a lot in your videos. Is the 3 in B3 a expansion card reference?
In the RSLogix 500 PLC programming environment, tags don't exist, so all memory resources used in your logic have to be accessed by their memory register addresses. B3 is the default data table for bits.
Love the value you provide
Glad you're happy! ✌️😁
Thank you, I really enjoy your teaching methods, it's well within my level of comprehension being a beginner....thanks again
Really glad it's all working out for you, my friend! I do my best to make this stuff very approachable for everybody.
Is that your teaching format?? I'm an electrician,...know of normally open and closed....just never grabbed the next step on the ladder to be exposed to control work, more of a electrical installation in commercial construction....looking forward to your course.
@@timoleary8732 New format? I pretty much stick with what works when it comes to teaching. That's not a formula I'm willing to tinker with all that much.
I am the first one to comment I hope you make such a nice videos , from kutus
I'll do my best! 😎
Wow
Amazing! Easy to follow and great common sense.
@@Watauva_94 I hope it benefits you!
i work at a pipe plant the PLC on the cage machine has stopped working is there any way to transfer the info from one to another it is a GE 90/30 PLC
I'm not up on that software in particular, but with most PLCs, you merely have to upload the program from one into your PC and download it into the other unit.
Hi Paul, i am i huge fan of you work, it's possible for you in the future make a video with the difference(or you preferences) between Siemens x Rockwell in automation (plc's, softwares, hmi, scada, know-how protection, etc...) i am on the Siemens side of the thing, and for me i cannot see why so many developers who work with both have the preference for the Rockwell
Honestly, those preferences are more based on region and industry than actual merit in most cases. If you ever figure out any MEANINGFUL differences, I'd love to know myself! Really, they both do the same job and run the same programming languages. If you can handle one, you can handle the other.
you are an awesome instructor!!!
You too. TOTALLY!
Great Sr 🎉
Great stuff! I love finding all the little ways to make my programming more efficient.
One thing I like to do is type out the instructions on the rung I want instead of using the graphical instruction panel. So for example, if I know I'm gonna need a couple XICs, an ADD, a SUB, and and an SCP and maybe a couple of branches, I can just select the rung and type *XIC XIC ADD SUB SCP BST BST* and then I can just drag and drop things where they need to be. No more scrolling through the little instruction panel.
I never thought of doing that, but yeah - BRILLIANT!!
Awesome video Paul. Time really is money when you are programming for a living. I use to be car dealership mechanic before becoming A&P and unlike aircraft mechanics, you get paid flat rate. The faster you can get the job done (without it coming back) the more money you make. So, I can relate to this. I am at the end of your Level 1 course and have picked up some really good workflow tips there and in your other videos. Thanks for all you share about PLC programming. The more I do it, the more excited I get about supplemneting my SS income. Thanks again.
The nice thing about working remotely (at least part time) is that is you're quick, there's no limit to what you can make. No kidding: I did a whole project (similar to P9 in Level 2) while my wife was out dancing one night and made $2500 in about three hours. Fun times. 🙂

Woo-CHAAA! 🥷
Paul is such a weapon 😊good stuff
Eh - I've been called worse! 😆
