Network-Enabled Relays
With a built-in web server, these relays can be remotely controlled over any IP network, including the Internet. They connect to your network either wirelessly or with an Ethernet cable (not included). No programming or software is required to operate these relays. Instead, use your web browser to input the relay’s IP address and the website guides you through simple menus and drop-down lists to set your parameters. Alternatively, you can use these relays with a PLC or without a computer at all if you use one relay as a controller for another relay.
Each circuit has a digital input that can be used to control the relay or a remote relay over the IP network. You could also use the digital input to monitor a separate device, such as a push-button or door alarm switch. These relays can be set to automatically restart network devices, such as computers, even when they fail to respond to relay signals. LED indicators let you know if there’s input and output voltage and if the network is connected and active. All meet at least one safety standard.
Mount these relays on 35 mm DIN rail (also known as DIN 3 rail) for fast installation. They also mount to flat surfaces.
Relays that control 2 circuits can also be programmed from a downloadable app or programs written in BASIC script, making them easy to customize. The website logs and stores data and device information.
Power over Ethernet (PoE) compatible relays can receive power from PoE cables (not included).

Compact Programmable Logic Controllers
Smaller than other PLCs, these controllers save space in your control cabinet. They combine the functionality of a relay, timer relay, and switch in one unit, so you can program simple automation jobs. All have two types of delayed start (delay-on-make) and two types of delayed switch-off (delay-on-break) timing functions. They have passed strict U.S. and Canadian safety standards, and they’re IP20, which prevents fingers and other objects from making contact with live circuits. Mount them to a 35-mm DIN rail.
Controllers with a display make it easy to monitor or modify your system directly on the unit. Controllers without a display eliminate the risk of accidental adjustments while toggling through information or tampering by unauthorized users.
Program these controllers by connecting them to a computer and installing the required software (sold separately). After the initial programming, these controllers can be updated remotely by a human-machine interface (HMI) or computer.

Open-Source PLCs
Kick-start your automation with example code and customizable libraries from the Arduino ecosystem. Use the manufacturer’s free software to program these PLCs with Arduino or a standard PLC language you’re comfortable with. When you’re ready, transfer your program to the PLC with a USB-C cord. Use the software to monitor, test, and troubleshoot issues in real time.
These PLCs support up to 88 inputs and outputs—enough to automate lighting or HVAC controls. They’re also known as smart relays. They have digital relay outputs that are ideal for loads that switch a few times per minute, such as compressors. However, they’re not designed for devices that switch multiple times per second, such as stepper motor drivers. Connect these PLCs to your Ethernet network to control devices anywhere in your facility. They use an open communication protocol, so you can mix and match devices from different manufacturers. Mount them to 35 mm DIN rail in your electrical cabinet.
PLCs with Wi-Fi have cloud connectivity that lets you program, monitor, and update them from anywhere. They also have Bluetooth to make initial setup easy—you can wirelessly configure them at close range. These PLCs send alerts directly to your mobile device, so you can quickly respond to issues.
PLCs with RS-485 terminals let you integrate legacy equipment and other serial devices into your system.
Add expansion modules to these PLCs when your system needs more inputs and outputs or new functionality. All modules have an LED status indicator to show the device is powered and running.
