Practical Tips and Techniques
The Arduino Opta can be programmed with basically two different software packages. The Arduino IDE and the Arduino PLC IDE. Arduino IDE is the traditional programming package for sketches (programs). C++ is used in sketches to develop your logic. Arduino PLC IDE will transform the Arduino Opta into a micro-PLC controller. Programs can be written … Read more
Arduino, the leading open-source electronics platform, has recently launched a new piece of hardware called the Arduino Opta IoT PLC. The device has been designed to enable the development of advanced industrial automation solutions, making it a game-changer in the world of IoT and Industry 4.0. In this blog post, we will look closer at … Read more
We will now connect our Productivity Open P1AM Arduino to a Click PLC. Using Modbus TCP the Arduino will be the Client (Master) and the Click will be the Server (Slave). We will explain how to connect our P1AM-ETH Industrial Arduino Ethernet Shield to the Click PLC. The protocol will be Modbus TCP on an … Read more
We will now look at the productivity Arduino Ethernet web server that we will implement on our Productivity Open P1AM industrial Arduino controller. This P1AM Web Server Example is based on an example found here. This example uses the productivity open P1AM-ETH shield to create a web server that displays the input values of a … Read more
