Hi,
I am new to PLC. Only experience is couple of lab experiments back in my undergrad engg.
We have a project where we have to computer control a process.
The inputs/outputs involve high voltage and current (upto 55Amps). Some temperature inputs too.
I am not yet sure about the number of inputs. Probably around 20 inputs and 20 outputs.
Right now, I am looking at Siements Win AC and AB Softlogix5800.
Good thing with the Siemens Win AC is the labview interface.
If I understand correctly the win AC is just software. I would
still need to get PLCs for actual control, right?
Can some one explain the softlogix5800? Like an overview.
Any other suggestions?
Thanks in advance.
