Hi everyone and greetings. I am an absolute newbie to the world of PLC's...one which I find absolutely fascinating!
I have a software question, and I hope some of you may be able to share with me some pointers on what to look for.
My question is, if we have a PLC that has a RS 232 socket and supports data communication, is there any software available that enables a PLC connected to a serial port of a windows based PC to design and configure screens that will enable us to display the data from the PLC ( i.e. from sensors) in various formats ( meters, graphs)?
In all honesty, I don't know what "family" or "type" of software I need to search for! Apologies if this question has been asked before.
Hope you might have some suggestions on what I could try out.
