Thanks for your input DataSurfer!

Thanks for the advice and the watchout Joe!

   I have to update the firmware on a 1756-L61 processor, which is currently at version 12.042. This is to make it compatible with the 64 bit laptops that we are getting from our IT department.  I have an ENBT and a few DC input and output cards in the rack. When I update the firmware on the processor, do I have to update the firmware on the other cards also? 

Thanks Inntele and kaare_t! Those are some good ideas that I think that I can use when writing a new job description.

Thanks for your input Joe! Your responsibilities look to be spanning a lot of job skills!

   The business that I work for is a large multinational medical device company, and we regularly post ads for employment trying to attract PLC programmers. The controls group at my company have a title of Engineering Technician. We advertise this title, but usually get people that are more mechanic than they are PLC programmers. To me, this title brings up an image of some sort of engineering helper, not a programmer. Out of curiosity, what are some of the forum member job titles at their place of business?

Thanks for the tip Alaric!

Thanks for the help! I tried some searches on the web, but never got close to what I was looking for. Thanks again!!

Can someone describe the order of operation for the following rung in the attached file? Does a branch execute at the same time as the main rung? Sorry about the beginner question, but I'm having a hard time following what happens when.
