Micrologix 1000

2 posts in this topic

I am new to C programming and I was wondering if anyone had any example code that I could compile to try and figure out how to actually communicate (read/write) from the com port on my pc to an Allen Bradley Micrologix 1000 plc. I have download the .pdf from ab.com but I can't make heads or tails of it. Any example code on how to set the baud rate, messages or how any of this is done would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance for any help. I am using Windows 98 SE and Microsoft Visual C++ as a compiler.

A good book on this subject is the curiously-named "Home Automation Basics" by Thomas Leonik.    It's really about serial communications in VB6 to the MicroLogix, wrapped up in a home automation application principally to make it more attractive to the hobbyist market. You can get it from Amazon or Fatbrain.com.
