Hello guys,
I'm new on this forum but I'm not new at PLC programming world. So far I had only experience with Siemens PLC controllers.
Now I have a relatively simple application in which I have 12 DI, 4 DO, 4 AI and 4 AO. The client insists that I use Schneider PLCs. I must admit that I had no previous experience with these PLCs. Therefore I kindly ask for your help in choosing the appropriate PLC configuration. The PLC must have RJ45 for connection to LAN network. I want to create a small HMI application and thinking of using IGSS software. There will be one simple PID controller to control temperature in one vessel. Temperature is 4-20 mA signal.
Via HMI application, operator can change setpoint for the temperature closed loop. Also, I need that other computer on the network have possibility to open HMI picture but only in read only mode. For this purpose, Web server would be ideal. I was thinking of using M258, but it seems to big controller for this number of I/Os.
What can you suggest me regarding the PLC configuration and HMI software?
Thank you!
