Posted 21 Nov 2011 What is your experience with the logos have any of you used the pc software to program them is it user friendly an are they durable thanks Greasy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted 22 Nov 2011 Hello and Welcome, I use the Seimens Logo Quite a bit in panels for stand alone equipment. If you have an application that will require a few timers and relays I find the logo works well instead of using alot of individual components. The Logo Soft Software is very user frendly and easy to use once you get used to it, and it has a simulation mode so you can simulate your project before putting it into service. I know the software is up to at least version 6 which is the latest version that I have. I have some that have been in service for over 5 years and never had a problem with them. They are inexpensive so for a small job they fit the bill quite well. Allen Bradley also makes something comparable called PICO, but I am more familliar with Siemens Logo.

Posted 22 Nov 2011 I agree, Logo is a solid product with easy to use software. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted 22 Nov 2011 (edited) There are many different types of "programmable relay" similar to the Logo. Eaton (ex Moeller) Easy, AB Pico, xLogicsoft, Omron Zen - all are much the same. However I have found the Eaton Easy to be the "easiest" to use and feel the software is much better than the Logo software. My preference would be the Eaton Easy every time. FYI the AB Pico is a "badged" Eaton Easy, the software is available from the AB web site http://ab.rockwellau...coSoft-Software Edited 22 Nov 2011 by Moggie Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted 22 Nov 2011 I have used Siemens Logo (which is also Idec Smart Relay), Mitsubishi Alpha, and once an AB Pico. I found the LogoSoft to be the simplest of the bunch. But this was years ago. I still use a Logo for outdoor lights and pool pump. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted 15 Jan 2014 Check Siemens website. I believe it may be free, but can't say for sure. If it's not free, nobody here will make illegal copies of it. That would be against the terms of use you signed when you created your account. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
