Let's get started... with the Allen-Bradley Micro820 PLC

The Allen-Bradley Micro820® Programmable Logic Controller ‘Starter Kits’ are designed to introduce you to the features and benefits of using the Micro820 PLC. 

The Micro820 controller is ideal for controlling small standalone machines and remote automation applications that require flexible communications and I/O capabilities and can be configured using the Connected Components Workbench software.

Key features of the Micro820 include:
  • The Micro820 20-pt controller has embedded Ethernet/IP and Serial ports and a microSD slot for data logging and recipe management.
  • It can function as a remote terminal unit (RTU) for SCADA applications with support for Modbus over serial and Ethernet communications.
  • Embedded support for 4 thermistor temperature inputs means it can function as a direct digital control (DDC) for building management systems (BMS).
  • EtherNet/IP for Connected Components Workbench programming, RTU applications and HMI connectivity.
  • 5KHz PWM Output for controlling solenoids and valves.
  • Built-in Real Time Clock (RTC) with no battery required.
  • microSD slot for program transfer, data logging and recipe management.
  • Available with removable terminal blocks for easier wiring and installation.
  • Supports up to two plug-in modules.
The ‘Starter Kit’ has been created to provide you with all of the basic hardware and software required to get you started with the Micro820 and includes the following parts:
