Hello ixo65, Thank you very much for your answer. I am a software engineer, so I do not really know many about PLCs. As it concerns the hardware, expect from the LOGO, I saw this one too: https://new.siemens.com/global/en/products/automation/systems/industrial/plc/simatic-s7-1500.html Also, can you help suggest additional hardware to buy in order to get energy consumption? Furthermore, can you please help me understand the differences between LOGO and Simatic PLC? We are building an industrial product prototype and if it is launched successfully, we will have to go to massive production. As it concerns the software, the integrated web server you are talking about exposes an API? Is this API capable of: - Remote control the system - Measure the consumption I found a wrapper for Python for PLCs (https://pypi.org/project/python-snap7/) and that is why I talked to you about python in my above post. As I said, I have not worked with PLCs any time before, so any help or suggestion will be very helpful. Also, can you suggest me all the parts I have to buy in order to build the product? Thank you very much :) |

I think, for a good energy managment ist a S7-1200 or S7-1500 the better solution.... |

I'm sorry, but I can't help you with that. Maybe another user sees himself able to help you. |
