Could you give me advice how to start learn PLC? Maybe some videos or websites. Or maybe there is a person to whom I can ask my questions? Thank you so much.

Or S7-410 is PCS7 PAC. Some older PLCs use Step 7 software which is obsolete now. If you have TIA portal and modern PLC, try to start with official Siemens tutorials on YouTube. For instance, this one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=22a2FJ9x8m0&t=51s Best regards!

For example TIA Portal V17 (latest version) Which Siemens PLC range are you using? Siemens has a wide range of PLCs including th S7-300/400 (older) ranges and the new devices such as S7-1200/1500. Wait for your answer. BR

Which type of CPU you whant use it depends how big program you will write. If not big program i suggest use S7-1200 series if large program then better use S7-1500 series I do not suggest use S7-300 because it's an old product and after few years it will be discuntinue. Later you can buy like spare part so better use S7-1200/S7-1500 series PLC
