A PLC or Programmable Logic Controller is the staple of industrial automation and controls, and Arduino has made one of the most affordable ways to get into the industry! This micro-PLC has Relay outputs, and programmable digital or analog input and output channels as well.

It also supports Modbus OPC communications for easy integration into SCADAs or larger controls systems, RJ45 ethernet communications and WI-FI connectivity! Additionally there are no licensing fees to use the Arduino PLC IDE where you can program in Ladder, Structured Text, FBD, SFC or using the regular Arduino IDE/C++ based language!

Ignition for Makers puts an incredibly powerful, next generation SCADA software available for makers and hobbyists and learners to start developing industrial automation and controls skills for free!
