Looking for a good book introducing 61131-3 for someone already familiar with traditional ladder logic.

 

Hello;

My own source of information on IEC61131-3 is http://www.plcopen.org.

LooK at the site's TC1 folder, you will find information, downloadable documents and presentations, and training material for the dofferent levels of 61131-3.

Hope this helps,
Daniel Chartier
