As a software guy, I'm looking for an OEM type controller suitable for an industrial setting that just needs to have programming added ... preferably an out of box solution with RTOS, a couple of relays, RT clock and some sort of simple user interface (touch screen/buttons whatever) ready to go, with protective enclosure and dev kit ... (C or Forth preferred).
required: user interface with screen/buttons minimum 1 relay with protection circuitry
nice to have options: keypad (pin) ethernet/802.11/bluetooth communications RFID FOB reader (alternative to pin security)
And of course, I'd like to pay practically nothing for it, but realistically, has anyone had any experiences with an affordable unit which will be able to effect time control of a solenoid??? Any pointers appreciated ...
Cheers, Rob.
