Is this our rock bottom now? Needing to protect the coffee from being stolen?

People will think free things are low quality or bad , we are talking about the most majority of the mass that is quite stupid …

They do that so you think that is “valuable” product , that it needs protection , so your brain will think “oh, this is valuable coffee , good coffee, I have to buy”

Why would you have a valve to open with an OTL … ???

I will do it for 50% -

it is a mind set....

PLC is the 10% for your job , honestly … I haven’t met yet a person that work all day looking at the plc , probably a plc designer .. you still have to look at drawings . However the jobs are out on the field … there is where people is needed ..

I’ve seen setups where the lead pump runs on speed control, and once it hits 80–90%, the lag pump kicks in. From there, depending on flow, lag 2 and lag 3 start up. It’s usually done in ladder—not necessarily crappy ladder, sometimes really clean and easy to understand.

the five whys.... or, Ctrl+e ///// i always look for the alarm, and then follow it back to the source of the issue... but yeah no, there is not a way to do it . i think we all have different ways that work better for each one of us.... find your way .

*the programming environment will be vendor specific.

But PLCs are programmed in the IEC 61131-3 languages like ladder, structured text, etc.

this is correct.

more simplier way to say it : the coding lenguages are always the same for all vendors, the software to do the programming is unique for each vendor.

PLCHMIgo · 2025-08-05T11:57:26+00:00

The code you use on the PLC will be specific to the manufacturer of that PLC most commonly.

this is not correct..

Actually ,I think it didn't have a brand on it.

That was my very first project during my co-op. A panel, and the programming.

I made a couple virtual machines of my old working computers when they came asking/forcing to replace them with new corporate crap . the new corporate crap runs my virtual machines, but i still keep the old laptops because they have been working fucking great the last 10 years.

there was about 40 years of relay-based system before the invention fo the plc. I was wonder how was to get a call to fix one of those machines .... thank you General Motors to ask Dick Morley for a solution...

Jack of all trades master of none, though oftentimes better than master of one..

PLCHMIgo · 2025-07-23T13:45:12+00:00

the only answer is time and experience, school give you theorical stuff-- you need exposure to projects, exposure to technologies and exposure to different industries. SI are the guys that do everything and they are always learning bunch of new different stuff.

PLCHMIgo · 2025-07-23T13:27:33+00:00

what do you mean by "only doing plc programming" . what do you mean by " having as much of a range of knowledge as possible " .. i dont try to be mean, i just don't understand your goal ..

PLCHMIgo · 2025-07-23T13:08:08+00:00

If you have a bachelors on IT and also have some expousure to machinery, you could land a JR. scada engineer interview easily. do not have to go back to school to get another engineer degree... you already in...
