Flashback Friday! RSView32 Top Ten Sorting Demo

May 30, 2014

Welcome to The Automation Blog's “Flashback Friday!”

This blog series highlights automation articles and content that I originally posted on my previous website(s) between 1999 to 2013.

Today I'm highlighting an RSView32 program I wrote to work with last week's RSLogix 500 sorting program.

In the early spring of 2000, a good friend of mine asked for help creating a program that would sort racers based on their race time.

His company was participating in a trade show at Disney World, and had built a “Slot Car” race track to demo their products. Since they were giving prizes away to the attendee with the fastest lap time, they needed a way to sort racers by their lap time, and I created this RSView32 Project to interface to the RSLogix 500 program I wrote.

To read the original story and download the project, see the reposted article HERE on The Automation Blog:
