Thank you all for the replies, I will do some more research into the various items. I do understand some basic ladder logic, I just need to expand on it more and implement it.
Back in the 90's i bought a used Allen Bradley Micrologix 1000 from EBAY for $75.00 and then downloaded the free RSLogix lite and Linx from the AB website. I then built a small trainer with input switches and output LED's and I was off to the races. My company sent me to the AB programming classes later and with a lot of help from our company engineers I was able to become proficient in the AB software. Network proficiency definitely will help.

My local college has an automation degree and plc's is the heart. I loved the book i learned with. also has a CD with logixpro so u can practice your programming. 10/10 book.
