Arduino Remote control Handle Apps on Android provides a Graphical Consumer Interface(GUI) to control Arduino with simplicity. Introduced in the year 2003, the Arduino platform quickly caught the eye of open source neighborhood and electronic hobbyists credited to its low price, plenty of online lessons, and a encouraging neighborhood. The CNC machine is built on an Arduino controller running the open source GRBL motion-control software. The GRBL controller receives CNC G-code (a text-based list of instructions for the CNC mill) and translates it into motion by driving the stepper motors. The machine has one stepper for the Z axis (up and down), one stepper for the X axis. I previously built an MPPT charger ( ). It is very strong and durable, but it always works silently. Productivity Open is an industrial rated Arduino compatible platform controller. This rugged open-sourced CPU mimics the MKRZero Arduino. You can add standard MKRZero shields (Add-on Boards), along with the Productivity 1000 PLC I/O. The Productivity Open Arduino Compatible Industrial Controller is CE and UL certified.

Arduino 4l60e Controller Open Source Software
Introduction
A Liquid-Crystal Display (LCD) is a flat-panel display or other electronically modulating optical device that uses the light-modulating properties of liquid crystals combined with polarizers. It is very common to use them to get and upgrade electronic systems and display the results. In this blog we are going to talk about how to use them using the I2C communications of your PLC controller.
Hardware requirements
Any of our industrial Programmable Logic Controllers
A liquid crystal LCD (In this example we will be using a 16x2)
I2C interface module and I2C wire
Wires
How to connect it?
Arduino 4l60e Controller Open Source Code
There are a lot of liquid-crystal displays in the market; in our case we will be using a 16x2 size DEM 16215 an HW-061 I2C interface module. For the industrial Arduino PLC we will use an M-Duino 50RRA+ WiFi/BT.
We will provide a 24V power to the PLC Arduino that will provide 5V to power the LCD. The LCD has 16 pins but we will only use a total of 12 as we will be work with a 4 bit data length interface. The pins that we will use for the characters are the ones 11 to 14.
Look for the I2C communication pins on the side of the controller Arduino since you will connect the SCL and SDA pins of the PLC to those of the I2C module. Then using the I2C wire you will connect the LCD display. Depending on your components, check out the documentation to know the pins to connect between the LCD and the I2C module.
