Want to learn how to use Object Oriented Programming (OOP) to program a PLC?  Tired of watching videos that move too fast
with an accent you can't understand? Don't want to spend thousands of dollars to travel hundreds of miles to attend a class?
OOP (Object Oriented Programming) wth Codesys Made Simple
will show you step-by-step how to program a PLC using OOP with Codesys in simple, easy to understand, examples.
What is a OOP (Object Oriented Programming)?
OOP is a way to package computer code or PLC (

ontroller) instructions into reusable blocks or "objects" that can be used multiple times in a program or in other programs.  OOP is a way to add structure to a program and keep program sections separate from one another so that the program doesn't end up with "spaghetti code" where multiple instructions affecting multiple elements are all mixed up together. OOP is not a new programming language in-and-of itself, but rather a way to package code to make programs more efficient, reusable, and modifiable.  High level computer languages like C and C++ have used OOP for years, and recently OOP has crept into programming of PLCs.
