Who Else Wants To Lean PLC Programming For Free?

I have always been an old-school programmer. Hardware in front of you hooked up to all of the I/O. I have recently looked at the automation direct do-more designer software solution. The Do-More Designer Software will allow you to build your ladder logic, download it into a simulator (which comes with the software), and run the code. The price of all of this… FREE


I will not get into many details because the documentation will get you through the software step by step.
– Download the software
– Install the software
– Use the YouTube videos to help get around the software and make your first program.

The following are several links to help you discover the plc programmer in you:
