Anthropomorphizing PLCs

Recommended Posts

Well, I use to comment my code in the first person;

"In this net "I" store the raw encoder count from MI 1 to MI 12, then "I" scale it for use on the display....."

But, over the years I've come to commenting in the third person;

"In this net "We" store the raw encoder count from MI 1 to MI 12, then "We" scale it for use on the display....."

It make the PLC feel like he is really part of the process......

I do like this!    But when it is in run mode, he is!  You're just the schmuck innocently watching what happens!

Sometimes my comments begin with "And now the #*$$#!! thing should do xxxx"!

cheers, Aus
