    peter.steele,

    I don't think anybody has suggested to use the StampPLC by Parallax. The StampPLC is designed for the industrial application, which is perfect for what you need to do use it for. The other good thing is the StampPLC can handle 24VDC inputs and outputs and also has analog inputs as well. Here is the link http://www.parallax.com/StoreSearchResults/tabid/768/txtSearch/stampplc/List/0/SortField/4/ProductID/290/Default.aspx

    The product - and the process by which it is made - is proprietary, so I can't really go into toooooo many details. It's basically a sort of lay-flat hose. It looks like tape, with how flat it is. It's rolled up like tape.

    That looks like a little bit of overkill for this particular application, but underkill for just about any other application that I've got. Most of the stuff that I have that I want to redo the automation on will need at least 15-18 separate I/O's, minimum. Some of them perhaps over thirty, between contactors for motors, chillers, heaters, interfaces with VFDs, etc.
