Hello everyone,
I am doing a fairly simple project and I would like to ask what would be the most suitable (cheapest) PLC for the job. I am getting three different ASCII messages via the serial port from a PC then I am turning a motor on three different positions, so all I need is one output (and 3 inputs). I did this with a SLC 5/04 but I need something smaller. What should I buy? Also I am familiar with Allen Bradley only, so must be easy to programm.
Also is there any tip on making ASCII instructions faster?
Thanks,
Eugen
