We need a simple program to automate some testing of a prototype. We want to use PLC controller to turn pumps and motors on and off. 4 outputs. We are assuming Eaton Series 500 or 700 controller. Small 12VDC pumps like aquarium. Want to be able to enter timing intervals ourselves, just need to get the parameters set up so we can enter the variables and run the tests ourselves. We need you to tells how many hours are required. In our minds this is a pretty simple job. Not for production of factory floor.

Hi, I'm interested in your project. I've been working with EATON PLCs for 10 years (mainly CoDeSys based: series XC-11xx, XC-2xx and EasyControl EC4P), but I've also done some simple projects with Easy series. I have a few questions: - Do you plan to use any push buttons to START, STOP the program? - Do you have a wiring diagram? Kind regards, Ales Bezeljak

Hi I'm an automation engineer with 10+ years of experience and I would suggest using original Siemens Logo 6 instead of Eaton. Or if you insist, Eaton is ok too. Programming would take 8 hours including parameters screens. And definitely less than $750. Best regards, Dennis Poduzov

I am employed as an engineer in food industries and work with PLC's a lot. Preferably Siemens S7 or TIA. I am just starting with working on Freelancer.com and would like to use this project as a way to gain a reference in combination with helping you. I am willing to drop to 500 USD, because I'd like to use this project as a stepping stone to freelance more.I do like get enough information on forehand so I can determine whether I can or can not help you.

Here if my execution approach: 1. Understand the project requirements in detail via email/call/skype. 2. Develop a light Functional Requirement and Design Doc (FRS/FDS) and get it validated from client 3. Develop and test PLC logic on virtual/simulated environment. 4. Transfer the logic onto the real platform and carry out remote testing if access provided. 5. If providing access to real PLC is difficult/not possible, support offline if there are any corrections. 6. UAT and Signoff

Hi, I am a mechanical & product engineer with a dedicated team of inhouse mechanical, electronics hardware and software engineers. For this project I would suggest much cheaper alternatives as compared to the Eaton 500 series PLC controller. I will make them using Arduino series microcontroller with relays. Kindly initiate a chat so that we can discuss the project in detail and can fix the project amount. Following is my profile: We have published 9 international papers and 5 patents. In past we have designed complete products like variable stability aircraft (changes its geometry while flying- having more than 800 custom designed parts), glider based payload delivery system/mechanism, desktop coffee roasting machine, gun recoil simulation mechanism, etc to name a few with microcontroller based sensors and controllers. We also have inhouse prototyping and manufacturing facility including 3D printing i.e. SLA and SLS in 3 different polymers, vacuum casting for a range of polymers and aluminum, CNC milling and turning, etc. PCB printing, hardware assembly, product integration & testing is also available. Best regards Anuj Garg

Dear Sirs, I'm Electrical and Automation engineer, who works for hydro power energy sector (small hydro power plant). I always do motors/pump automation in my jobs. I'll provide PLC program plus electrical wiring diagrams (including power supply, power distribution, plc arrangement) in PDF format and CAD format. I'll use PLC with display so you can easily enter your parameters during operations.

Hello! I can help with this task. I have experience with small and medium Schneider Electric's controlers, but there aren't so differences. The controler are using standard languages for controll. For programing is needed: - Programming software for easy500/700 - easy500/700 to PC programming cable—USB I will be glad to work together! You can write me on e-mail Best wishes, Pavlin Terziev

I recommended you to choose Unitronics V130 or V350 PLC device for your project, it's simple, cheap, and most important things - have an included HMI system (keypad and screen or touchscreen) to change yours parameters like you want ... - in your case timers for 4 output. You could use the rest of 500$ to buy this PLC ... :)) ! Best Regards!

Hello! If you only have the 4 outputs that you need to control during the test cycle then the Eaton Easy500 range should be fine for your application. Assuming there are not too many inputs then something like the EASY512-DA-RC should do nicely. That one has 8 x 12 VDC inputs and 4 x output relays. It also has a small display which would allow you to enter the test parameters, timers etc. The test itself could then be initialised through either via the display or by including a simple start / reset push button arrangement connected to the inputs. Within my bid I would include for: - initial phone / skype discussion to clarify requirements - overview drawing of system (focused on the controller, just to summarise the requirements and make sure everyone is happy) - Setup / programming of Easy500 (or Easy700 if deemed necessary) - close-out phone / skype discussion - I'm more than happy to support with any additional advice concerning wiring, cable sizing, power supplies, safety circuits etc. I should be able to complete the work within a day or two of the initial phone/skype meeting. I've set the completion time as 3 days as I currently only have an old version of Eaton's EasySoft which is used to program these controllers. I have allowed an additional day for me to get hold of the latest version to ensure you have no issues with firmware / hardware compatibility at your end (EasySoft is available next day here in the UK from RS Components). Thanks James

I can program this for you, with a easy to use interface, and the sequencing you need. Additionally I can also design the diagrams needed for installation and documentation.
