Hi.
I have a fairly simple PLC application and I must now choose a PLC. I have looked at the Omron ZEN and the Moeller Easy 412 & 619. My application is:
Based on the absence of 115VAC on the PLC input terminal, I will have to try resetting a 115VAC ultraviolet light (ballast load) X times over Y minutes. If after successive power resets, there is still no 115VAC on the PLC input terminal, I will have to provide 115VAC to a control valve for Z minutes, and, after some specified time, repeat the cycle. I will require retentive counters to know how many retries, etc.
How does the ZEN compare with the Moeller Easy series? Are there other inexpensive PLC's out there that could handle this? I have tried the Moeller software demo and it appears to be fairly easy to program the Easy PLC's.
Thanks,
MG.....
