I preferred Omrons or Eurotherms. Good luck.

I don't know if I'm gaining or not. I found that the data acq card didn't have the Analog
input and Analog output channels ground terminal tied to ground. So I added it. I
checked to make sure the control console was grounded to the control cabinet.

I didn't try really hard by power cycling the control too many times to see if it would
fail. We need the test cell up and running.

I've had good luck with Watlow going back to the days of 1/4 din stuff with dials and
meter movements at the old job.

Most things I deal with are easy fixes. Doesn't take long to find the problem when there
is one but from time to time you get a problem that doesn't want to go away. Often on
machines that have worked fine for years.

Never saw a Eurotherm before. Omron is pervasive.
