November 10, 2021

CLICK PLUS PLCs combine the simplicity of the original CLICK PLC with advanced features, including Wi-Fi capability, MQTT communication, data logging, and mobile access. The new CLICK PLUS 2-slot CPU offers an additional built-in option module slot for even more PLC I/O customization. Over 400 option slot I/O module combinations are now possible for a single stand-alone PLC unit. The CLICK PLUS option module slots allow for easily changeable I/O configurations to match the job at hand in lieu of the fixed I/O offered in the original CLICK series PLCs.

For systems with even higher I/O needs, the 2-slot CPU can also be expanded with up to 8 additional stackable I/O modules for up to 156 discrete I/O or 60 analog I/O points total. Numerous stackable modules are available, offering discrete, relay, analog, temperature, and combination I/O.

Both CLICK and CLICK PLUS PLCs use the same user-friendly FREE programming software offering simple, straightforward control. One-slot CLICK PLUS CPUs start at $89, and two-slot versions start at $121.

For applications that rely heavily on serial communication, the new CLICK PLUS serial communication option slot module (C2-DCM) allows you to add two RS-232/RS-485 serial ports to any single-slot CLICK PLUS CPU and up to four additional serial ports with the 2-slot CPUs. This module supports both Modbus RTU and ASCII communication and is priced at $105.

The EPLAN Data Standard

 

When control cabinets are being designed in 3D, wire lengths automatically calculated, or mounting panels processed by machines, standardised component data is required. These data are also the foundation for the digital twin, which is becoming increasingly indispensable in the product life cycle. The EPLAN Data Standard defines the type of component data required to automate and simplify processes in (pre)planning, engineering, manufacturing and maintenance.
