Design and implementation of a development environment on ladder diagram (HT-PLC) for Arduino with Ethernet connection

摘要

The purpose of this project is to present an alternative for the Arduino boards programming through a ladder diagram development environment. Similarly, it seeks to provide a new option for both academic and automation process applications for effective solutions without the use of extensive resources. The product of this objective is a PLC (Programmable Logic Controller) whit Ethernet connection prototype based in Arduino called HT-PLC, which is distinguished by being compact, economical and easy to controlled. It's programmed in ladder language using an IDE, developed by Visual Studio with the C# programming language and has basic and intuitive tools for program development and also has a single and friendly interface to ease its use.
