RSLogix5000 is a user friendly IEC61131-3-compliant interface for programming the current generation of Rockwell Automation PLCs, which includes Ladder Diagrams (LD), Graphical Function Block Diagrams (FBD), Graphical Structured Text (ST), and Sequential Function Charts (SFC).
Instant PLC Programming with RSLogix 5000 captures the core elements of PLC programming with RSLogix 5000 with a minimal investment of time. We will avoid getting into control theory and focus on condensing the information specific to RSLogix 5000. We have selected the key areas of RSLogix and provide a step-by-step approach to teaching them.
This book start by follows the steps involved in creating a new RSLogix 5000 project and configuring racks, slots, and channels. Next, we will create routines using the various languages available in RSLogix 5000, troubleshooting and resolving issues we encounter along the way. Finally, we will dive into the advanced features, such as online changes, code generation, task management, and user-defined structures.
You will also learn object-oriented PLC programming techniques using advanced features like user-defined types (UDTs) that improve the maintainability, uniformity, and readability of our routines. We also highlight the strengths and limitations of online changes and demonstrate techniques to maximize flexibility.
You will learn everything you need to get up and running with RSLogix 5000 as well as best practices used by industry experts.

Synergist has also developed a suite of engineering tools, including Citect Power Tools and Active Network Security. In July 2013, Synergist was acquired by Cimation LLC as the catalyst for its growing Canadian operations and ongoing product development.
With more than a decade of industrial automation and software development experience, Austin has worked on large-scale, high-profile projects across North America and globally, incorporating most major SCADA platforms.
Austin's professional focus includes developing and refining custom software solutions to enhance the productivity of SCADA developers, improve integration between SCADA data and corporate applications, and cyber security, especially the detection of unauthorized access to SCADA networks and forensic analysis of SCADA breaches.
Cimation and its 250 talented employees serve North America's energy industry with automation and controls, industrial IT, and enterprise data solutions (inc. SCADA).
Forbes recently ranked Cimation number 22 on its second annual America's Most Promising Companies list. Cimation was the only energy consulting firm ranked in the list's top 25. The Forbes America's Most Promising Companies list is comprised of 100 privately held, high-growth companies with bright futures.

He is currently pursuing an M.E. in Electronics & Telecommunication from Shivaji University. He has published several papers on PLC-based systems. He is the owner of the blog http://plc-scada-dcs.blogspot.com, where he writes tutorials on the latest developments in automation engineering.
Scott Whitlock is a licensed professional engineer and automation programmer. He has been writing programs in RSLogix 500 and 5000 since graduating from the University of Waterloo in 2000. He is the author of a popular (and free) online tutorial for RSLogix 5000 beginners. He also does a lot of HMI and data-collection work using C# and SQL Server, respectively. Recently he has been building more systems using TwinCAT 3, a PC-based control system. Outside of work, he has written and released two open source libraries (called FluentDwelling and SoapBox Core) and one open source ladder logic editor (called SoapBox Snap), all written in C#. Scott still lives in the small town where he grew up, with his loving wife Tammy, three adorable young children, and their family dog, Roxy. In those precious minutes after the kids go to bed, Scott sometimes finds the time to write down his thoughts about PLC programming, PC programming, and the differences between the two on his blog, Contact and Coil,at http://www.contactandcoil.com/.
