How to Operate an Automated Process
I've been in the automation business for a few years now, and there's a common control strategy I've picked up on. In order to operate a computerized control system, one must follow these simple guidelines:
- If it doesn't beep, ignore it.
- If it won't stop beeping, unplug it.
- If someone asks, blame the software.

I think #1 should be " If it beeps, ignore it.", but yea, that's spot on for many operators. At least #3 is. =]
I've seen more operators call in an I/E tech for a "plc problem" when it was their equipment that was actually malfunctioning.
