Hello friends, I hope you are doing very well! In today's tutorial, we will set up a simulation environment for Ladder Logic Programming. It's our second tutorial in Ladder Logic Programming Series. In our previous tutorial, we have seen a detailed Introduction to Ladder Logic Programming and we have seen that this programming language is used for PLC controllers.
As PLC is an Industrial Controller, it comes with built-in relays/transistors(with protection circuitry) and thus is quite expensive as compared to microcontrollers/microprocessors i.e. Arduino, Raspberry Pi etc. Moreover, if you are working on a real PLC, you need to do some wiring in order to operate it. So, in order to avoid these PLC issues at the beginning, instead of buying a PLC o ...
