    Ideally you should get a programming manual for the PLC control you intend servicing.
    Also a knowledge of boolean arithmetic would be good.
    I believe there are many examples and short tutorials on the web.
    A ladder rung consists of Boolean expressions that progress from left to right rail and the result of the Boolean logic culminates in an output coil, timer, counter, register bit.
