PLC Book
(OP)
I'm looking for a good book on plc's.
I would like the book to have the following topics:
>LOGIC SYSTEM TYPES AND METHODS OF IMPLEMENTATION
(ex. describe the function of each of the parts of an interlock control system....)
>PROGRAMMABLE LOGIC CONTROLLER ARCHITECTURE
>LADDER DIAGRAM AND BOOLEAN NOTATION
(good if it may possibly include relay ladder diagram for a logic system using JEDEC symbology)
>BINARY LOGIC SYSTEMS
>PROGRAMMABLE LOGIC CONTROLLER FUNCTIONS
>LOGIC SYSTEM DESIGN
>PLC INSTALLATION
>DISTRIBUTED CONTROL SYSTEM ARCHITECTURE AND INSTALLATION
>BLOCK PROGRAMMING
>FIELDBUS ARCHITECTURE AND CONTROL
Any suggestions??

Fisher also has documents on their Delta V, including their IEC 61131 languages. I think most are free to download.
The Delta V is sort of a PLC/DCS both. Some say neither. Depends who's talking.

RE: PLC Book
plcguide.mrplc.com or click link on left side under 'web partners'
it doesnt have everything, but lots of things.
RE: PLC Book
You might have mentioned the entire series from that guy.
It's great although not the same caliber as the PLC section,
the other sections are good. I found that link last year
some time and think it's great. But, since you already
mentioned it.....
The whole series is:
It's either "Engineer in a Book" or "Engineer on a CD"
Opps. "Engineer on a Disk"
Here it is:

And fills in other areas of interest.

Dont try to print that at work. I was chewed royally for printing V4_2. Tied the printer up for 45 minutes! (and a ream of paper!)

RE: PLC Book
Well, what I did was gather the whole collection and then
I burned a CD. Around here, a CD costs about $0.14. I tuck
the CD into my little collection of documentation and I
can easily carry it around. If I need a page or two, then
there's no problem printing them out.
There's some good stuff on the internet. Interestingly
enough, a lot of it comes from Jr. College professors who
don't want their students "ripped" by the textbook group.
There is a good computer networking book out there and
one or two on stepper motors. Also there are some (although
dated) books on linux administration from the linux
documentation project.
A little collection of CDs is pretty small.
Cheers,
Rich S.

Nice link.
Thanks, Chuck
RE: PLC Book
Your are certianly welcome! We are all in this together
and little links like this makes the job a whole bunch
easier!
I have a friend who has a license plate holder that says:
" I can't
Together we can! "

RE: PLC Book
Though I haven't taken the course myself, I've heard good reviews from colleagues who have.
