  1. Easiest to use and best programming software

    I liked the old GE VersaPro software. Unfortunately it is no longer supported. I have or am using RsLogix (all flavors), Proficy ME, Step 7, DirectSoft 5, and Proworx.
  2. Thermal Management

    Painting the enclosures white and also using sunshields help with outdoor panels. Surprisingly painting stainless steel enclosures white will lower the internal temperature of a panel by a substantial amount.
  3. Panelview Plus

    The PanelView+ and Factory Talk View ME have an issue with the alarming I/O. I have found that if the comms with a PLC fails and then is restored, some of the tags in the alarms stop updating. One fix for this is to reboot the PanelView+ terminal (cycle power). I have reported this to A-B, however as the issue is random and intermittent, I have not recieved any solutions.
