Suggestion on ladder primer?

Tom Gardner · 2013-04-16T23:35:32+00:00

ladder and relay logic are NOT my strong suit! I don't do well with any more than a few inputs and outputs. Is there a good basic book that would help convert a process into a wiring diagram and parts list? A lot of my stuff wouldn't be worth a PLC but a few relays and limit switches are more in line.

I finally got it, thanks for the kind offer! It DID make me vow to learn PLC's.

It was like pulling teeth and juggling 7 balls at the same time but I DID get it done. It took more relays than I thought...I sure learned a lot! From now on, I won't fuss, I'll replace relay boxes with PLC's. I bought an "Automation Direct Click PLC from a buddy in Chicago that I called. I'm going to build a PLC Trainer with it so I can learn more. Thanks for the kind offer and encouragement.
