Hi guys,
Next year our company will start a project with Beckhoff PLCs. We are a small company and all new to Beckhoff hardware, so I thought I'd ask here. Does anybody have experience with Beckhoff, and if so, what are your thoughts when compared to suppliers like Siemens and Rockwell?
Another question: For the general input modules ( EL1124 | EtherCAT Terminal, 4-channel digital input, 5 V DC, 0.05 µs | Beckhoff USA, EL1008 | EtherCAT Terminal, 8-channel digital input, 24 V DC, 3 ms | Beckhoff USA ) do we need to add pull ups and pull downs ourselves or are these built in?
We will be collaborating with a third party who has a lot of experience programming control system with beckhoff / twincat but no one has experience with the actual hardware.
Thanks in advance!
