Phoenix Contact Open control combined with IEC 61131 programming

PLCnext technology is a control platform that combines the features of traditional IEC 61131 programming with the flexibility of open-source languages such as Linux. The completely open platform allows users to access the core of the product directly via Linux so they can leverage the open-source community or develop their own Linux-based applications on an industrially hardened control platform. At the same time, PLCnext enhances IEC 61131 PLC programming and makes it possible to program controllers using high-level languages for real-time performance and data. It is IIoT-ready and has complete integration with Proficloud for access to dashboard data and alarms using time series data.
