Comment 4 for bug 481282

Hello,

Thanks for the reply, I almost forgot about it.
PLC stands for Programmable Logic Controller. It's used to control processes in Industrial installations.
The best know brand is Siemens, I've got some from moeller at home, which I'd like to use for some home automation.
The software used to program the PLC is made for windows 98/2k and communicates by serial cable.

Best regards,

Arno
