Hi all,
I'm interested in giving the DirectLogic PLCs a try. I have read many good reviews about their reliability and affordability in this forum.
In my short life as a PLC programmer, I have only used the AB line: Microloix 1200 and 1500, and I'm currently working on my first project using a CompactLogix.
Could you give me advise on what would be the DirectLogic equivalents for those AB PLCs I mentioned above?
Regarding the pogramming tags, it seems that the DirectLogic software(Directsoft) does not offer UDT (user defined tags) as RSLogix 5000 does. Am I right?
I am willing to cut costs and try those PLCs that so many people praise, but I wouldn't like to miss anything relevant by not using Allen Bradley.
Thank you!
