Great for education
Why did you pick this product vs others?:Great kit. I like how it includes the inputs/switches and the heater module for an output to program. Also like the multiple was it can be coded.

It's a paper weight
The product doesn't work as advertised. Apparently there is a known firmware issue with the product and the seller is still knowingly selling them. I received the product about a week ago and have been unable to even complete the activation due to this issue. Since I can't complete the activation, I can't use it with the PLC IDE and cannot program it as a PLC. I have spent the past week attempting to troubleshoot the issue, with Arduino customer service, and it's still not resolved. Customer service has also not agreed to replace it under warranty despite admitting there is a known issue with some of the units. As a result I now have a product in which I can't even use the minimum advertised features.

This device and software are not nearly ready for commercial or training use. Save your money.
Like:The kit has all you would need for learning PLC programmingSoftware (PLC IDE) looks nice and is fairly easy to understand.Works well with Arduino IDE but, that negates the purpose of learning ladder logic software.Cons:Connecting PLC to the software is extremely problematic.Using PLC IDE software to load the PLC results in the program being installed to volatile memory which means you lose the program after powering down.I have used many Arduino boards for many projects and have been happy with the results. I am extremely disappointed with this offering. I wish I had purchased something else. I contacted Arduino 3 days ago and no response.
