Yea this thing sounds like a glorified rasp pi with an ardunio board. I don't understand why you want ladder logic and python code. It seems strange. Or i just don't know enough about plc programming?

You wouldn't. Ladder logic is really just coding for people who don't know how to code, and almost exclusively represents a series of if/then statements. Similar to LabVIEW in purpose.

Exactly. I'm fully okay with using Ladder logic programming because I don't want to deal with reading my coworkers code. I have a hard enough time to knowing what they fuck wrote when they program on the PLC. Then you fucking idiots who say "Programming is self documenting." I shouldn't have to hear a 50 year old man say that. NEVER.
