We believe that EZSeries TextPLC is a paradigm shift in the Micro Automation controllers. The equivalent Rockwell solution costs not just 2 times, not 3 times, not 4 times, not 5 times, not even 6 times. It actually costs more than 7 times the price of EZSeries TextPLC as seen below.

Lets take an example. Assume that we have an application which has the following requirements:
Power supply = 24VDC
# of 24VDC Inputs = 16
# of 24VDC Outputs = 8
# of 12 bit Analog Inputs = 4
# of 12 bit Analog Outputs = 4
Communication Option: Should be able to interface with DeviceNet.
Remote I/O Connectivity = YES
Number of internal registers = 500
Memory requirement = 24 Kwords
Scan time = less than 5 msec

This application cannot be handled by Micrologix because it does not have memory capacity of 24K and is also too slow for the application.

For the above system requirement you can buy 7 EZSeries TextPLC systems for the same cost of Compact Logix & Panel View and get better performance on top.
