Gary is one of the best in his field and this book is an example of why.
As a natural teacher, Gary is able to break down complex subject matter into easy-to-understand pieces. Then, as an engineer with decades of experience, he follows up with "real world" examples that enable the reader to comprehend the big picture.
I'd recommend this book to any Codesys user regardless of their level of experience.

Just a great book on the massive software suite that is Codesys. Gary knocks it out of the park on this one. It now travels with me everywhere I go.
5.0 out of 5 stars Take your PLC programming skill to next level
I got trained by Gary the Author on this material in 2018. The book isn't like other software books where only fundamentals are shown and you have to apply your own application knowledge, rather the book shows you complex application examples (from nuclear reactors to high speed bottle fillers) with best practices and efficient code writing. It broadens the horizon on which language to use for different parts of automation. The references are so amazing that I have this material open when I am writing PLC code. You'll learn things about CODESYS that are not even available from 3S or the CODESYS website.
The book contains best practices, code examples, and solutions to everyday problems faced by a controls engineers. If you want to take your PLC automation skills to the highest level possible then invest in this book.
