Baby Do-More

[deep6ixed]

I know you guys can't talk about specifics involving release dates, but I have an upgrade that would be perfect for a mini do-more.  We have some pumps that are throttled down on contactors and our energy audit suggested that we use drives with pressure feed back. Our current system uses a DL06 with analog input. 

I hate analog on these platforms and would love to switch to a do-more mini... 

So in a roundabout way of me asking, would it be feasible to plan on using the baby do more if I worked this into say my overhauls that would happen in December?

If the rollout continues as well as it has gone so far, yes...barely.

Might have another great project for a baby Domore. I used to build a watering machine for commercial greenhouses. I built a few hundred then went into a deal with a karger conpany abd got forced out. They continued to build my machines for another 15 years or so and finally the chips to build control boards were no longer available so they had a new control designed. They were unbelievably over complicated but they sold hundreds more before closing down the manufacturing after 25 years. Now old customers are calling me looking for replacement controls. A baby domore might fill the bill perfectly. Simple machines, one DC motor, a couple of valves and limit switches.

I also built a number of complex multibay dual Plc machines running DL205s that have been running for 15 years or so.

The bricks will be available in 10, 18, and 36 I/O, and depending on model, can accept up to 8 expansion modules. Sounds like one of the smaller bricks would do the job.
