We will be connecting the Productivity 1000 Series PLC with our computer running the Productivity Suite Software. A micro USB and an Ethernet (RJ45) communication link will be made to our programmable logic controller.
The latest Productivity Suite software version is 3.1.0.11. This is the programming software that we will be using to create our logic for control.
Let’s get started.
More information can be obtained at our website. This includes all of the links mentioned in this video.

There are several reasons why we are using the Productivity 1000 Series Controller. Here are just a few.
- 50MB user memory - Can handle very complex applications easily.
- 4 built-in communication ports – Easy connectivity to your network.
- Data logging up to 32 GB on a microSD card
- Add up to 8 IP modules to communicate to your field sensors. This will give you a total of 128 discrete IO points or 32 analog IO channels.
- Free Software and 30 days of free training with every CPU from Automation Direct.
- Interactive PLC Configuration Tool
- Tag Names
- Auto-discovery IO – Physical I/O tags will be generated based on each module’s position in the base.
- I/O Modules have QR codes under the wiring cover. This can be scanned so you can have the latest specifications/wiring diagrams for the module.
- Limitless PID – Autotuning – Individual or Cascade Mode - etc
- Web Server and Mobile Access
- Advanced Software instruction set
The Productivity 1000 series of programmable logic controllers currently has all of these features built into the P1-540 CPU.
This CPU (Central Processing Unit) is also known as MPU (Multi-Processing Units) because of the communication capabilities.
