    Agreed. It could mean many things. I guess embedded linux and codesys qualifies? i have used, and enjoyed Wago devices. It looks interesting but at £464 I did expect a lower price.

    mp2100 Laughing  You do get the 1.25A 24v power supply, two 16A double pole switches, a branded backer board with DIN rail, power cord and USB cable - as well as the PLC.

    It does appear to be a fairly comprehensive PLC.  If you need what it has, it's fairly priced.  I dropped almost $200 USD to get a 4DI/4DO module for my PLC project.  If you don't need all that capability...

    Joy I spend way too much time look at this stuff. Laughing
