Hi
I am learning to program in RSlogix 5000 on a Compactlogix PLC. Is it possible to set up a Time controller (such as a central heating controller) to start and stop events on a daily / weekly timed basis? If so pleae could someone show me some sample code or such like. Thank you in advance.

You might take a look at the GSV instruction and the WallClockTime object. You could read the DateTime attribute periodically to see what the time of day is, and trigger an event at certain times.
