I will be buying the plc and the loadcells in 2 to 3 days and after that the real fun will begin.
I am thinking of buying s7-1200 but im kinda curious. Will it be enough for my loadcells? i mean i will connect my loadcells with a junction box and then will connect it to my plc but i really dont know.

i am thinking of buying 4 of these(2tons) but will my plc give any problems? is it powerful enough? Really dont know
How many analog inputs does the S7-1200 have? I don't think any S7-12xx models have more than 2 analog inputs, 0-10V. Is S7-1500 series the same? Maybe you can purchase an add-on module?
Or can the load cells be connected via a network (ethernet/profinet/modbus/etc.)?
