Posted 21 Dec 2010 Hello, I used two a few years ago. One for an ink tank system and the other for a hydraulic system. Both worked OK. Be sure to purchase an end plate. Good luck, Mark http://www.peakhmi.com/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted 22 Dec 2010 Hello, > does it flexible to work with various kind of communication protocols? I do not recall. I only used it with MODBUS. >ease to programmer to use? It was OK. I only used FB. >it's prices, compared with micro PLC's? Yeah it was comparable. We needed remote I/O and it fit the bill at a good price point.

Posted 29 Dec 2010 A good all purpose little PLC, good bang for buck Uses CodeSys for programming - all 6 IEC languages, nice simple programming enviroment - I use ST & CFC. Has a good range of interface modules. My favorite is the 750-871 ethernet with builtin 2 port switch. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted 30 Dec 2010 You may also want to look at Beckhoff for a comparison. The hardware is very similar, some of it even interchangeable. They both use the same base programming software. I think Beckhoff offers more flexibility. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
