We will be connecting the Productivity 1000 Series PLC with our computer running the Productivity Suite Software. A micro USB and an Ethernet (RJ45) communication link will be made to our programmable logic controller.
The latest Productivity Suite software version is 3.1.0.11. This is the programming software that we will be using to create our logic for control.
Let’s get started.
