Piface PLC Software (Rasberry Pi)

Former Member

I recently purchased the piface module for the rasberry pi and was wondering if anyone knew of any ladder logic software I could use to write simple PLC programs.

 

I have written tons of these things using Siemens,allen-bradly,and control microsystems I have just never written one using statement list and don't feel like busting out java to make a driver

 

Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated.

 

Thanks,

    I goggled for this and found a few things that may be interesting but you will need to know C programming and have to adapt to the PI

     

    "C PLC relay ladder software"

     

    certainly nothing much comes to mind, these days i would be using C or assembly to program your logic or even higher level programming, RLL has been around for ever and was originality intended for the old engineers used to wiring physical panels of relays to perform a function (My First job with British Gas was to convert the old relay control boards to Omron or Westinghouse PLCs and relay ladder logic was the easiest for the site engineers to understand. (Now im showing my age lol...)
