First, thanks for all your inputs I really appreciate it!
Now I will try to explain my situation a little bit better...
I am working on a reconstruction project therefore I'am looking to change a little as a can (budget an so on...).
I have eight plc's, all of them hooked up, programed and running.
These are small plc's designed for HVAC, so they do not have a communication capability.
Inputs to these plc's (24 V DC) are done through relays, but they do not have double contacts, which is the source of my problem...
Cause, a have a task to gather all these inputs that are going in above mentioned plc's and feed them to a new plc
which will drive the scada system but only to monitor the process on a remote station.
So this new plc will not control the process, that will remain the job for the old ones.
I was thinking to connect these inputs from the old ones parallel with the new one(24 VDC), so I don't have to replace all the relays.
And that's the whole story...
