Most Important Scripting Language For Controls Engineers
OmronOmicron posted a topic in General Topics - The Lounge
As the industry of plc and scada softwares continue to integrate more and more programming languages into their IDE, what is the most common language that should be learned by controls engineers (excluding Ladder Logic)? I mainly use Python and VB for scripting but I am curious what languages other SCADA and PLC programming environments use. Should I be sticking to a specific language and learning it well or just know a little bit of them all? Let me know your thoughts!! -
Hey guys, I am looking to query a database through FactoryTalk SE. I will be scanning packages, and using that bar code to find a lane assignment from the database. My question has to do with where the VB script will reside in the FactoryTalke SE program. I want this script to run at all times. I see that each screen has a "VBA Code" but I am assuming that these will only run when the screen is visible. Where does this have to be stored in order to run all the time? Thanks In Advance!
