I just felt like being hit in the face with a shovel; what a revelation; love the way you break down PLC operation into its most simplest forms; like how you said "PLCs don't work like human brains; it can't see what's ahead"....what a great way of explaining it all...very simple, but straight to the point.

you can not have the same two output. Rung 0 should be B3.

Greetings wrabbit1. I'm afraid that you've missed the point. The purpose of this lesson is to teach how the PLC executes its program. It shows what happens step-by-step during the scan sequence. You're correct that using a "double-coil" like this is USUALLY a programming mistake – but here it's being done intentionally for training purposes. How can you learn troubleshooting and problem-solving skills without "troubles" and "problems" to solve? Thank you for your comment. Ron

kool...will do that..but i do have one question...im unsure of what cable is needed or my RSlogix 500 to communicate with my SLC 500..it looks just like a regular CAT5 cable..but im reading in places that is untrue..i need some kind of dh485 cable?..where can i grab something of this sort..

do NOT plug a regular Ethernet cable into that port ... there is 24VDC on some of the pins that can damage your computer ... I buy any cables that I need from the PLCTRAINER site ... (I have no financial connection with that site) ... you can find a link on the Links to PLC Resources page of my website ... Ron
