PiXtend V2 -S- is a programmable logic controller (PLC) based on the powerful Raspberry Pi single board computer. It‘s numerous digital and analog inputs and outputs allow connections to a wide range of sensors and actuators found in industrial applications and in the Maker scene. The connection to other devices, controls and
computer systems is established via standard serial interfaces (RS232, Ethernet, WiFi). The interfaces and I/Os have a robust design and comply with the PLC standard (IEC 61131-2).

PiXtend V2 -S- ePLC Basic
The PiXtend V2 -S- ePLC (economy Programmable Logic Controller) Basic is a fully assembled and tested device, which is aimed at programmers, device and machine builders. The Raspberry Pi with pre-installed SD card is included, installed and put into operation. This version is particularly well suited if you want to start your own program development immediately, since no more assembly work is required compared to the extension board.
The PiXtend V2 -S- ePLC Basic contains a pre-installed SD card and a set of jumpers for configuration.
Software:
- CODESYS V3 - professional programming system for programmable logic controllers (PLC) according to IEC 61131-3
- C - the standard of the Linux world
- Python - the language of the Raspberry Pi, scripting language
- FHEM - popular open source home automation system, operation via web or app
- Node-RED - grafical flow-based programming for the IoT age
