Arduino PLC based details
Industrial Automation
Modular PLC
This is the first equipment based on the Arduino technology designed for professional use. This PLC has 20I/Os. It also contains several communication ports which provide more flexibility and control. The GPRS Controllers family offers the possibility to expand up to 127 modules through I2C, which means that you can have until 7100 Inputs / Outputs in Master-Slave connections, additionally to sensors, etc…
Programming Software
This PLC can be programmed using the Arduino IDE platform. See the Documentation menu below to download the software for free.
Instantaneous connection and coding
The GPRS Controller is programmed through the USB ports. This PLC can also be programmed through Ethernet port remotely. This offers an immediate access to program, maintain, and control. Also, you can continuously monitor the status of all the variables, inputs, outputs, etc. It is compatible with the Ardbox , M-duino and the Touchberry Pi with an instantaneous connection.
