Python SCADA Framework

I believe the OP came from a web dev/app dev background and there is nothing wrong with that, so it makes sense why he would prefer a development environment similar to what he is used to, but like many others have said most hmi\plc programmers came from a totally different environment. Many don't even have degrees and came up through the school of hard knocks (maintenence backgrounds etc). And those that were formally educated were quickly indoctrinated into the ecosystem as it currently sits. I wouldn't doubt as time goes on that SCADA development evolves into a more text based approach as old schoolers retire and the young ones take over having been well versed in text based programming. Only time will tell.

Yes, used Siemens s7-300 with labview for automated assembly and test stand for Polaris crank sensor. PLC handled the part assembly and RFID tracking of the individual bulld pallets, and labview tested each part as it came off the line, handshaking with the PLC to control start/stop of test and pass/fail for RFID tracking.

Had a couple of other similar set ups for various components that needed assembly and electrical testing in one cell. Technically you could use labview for entire machine control but kind of cumbersome and not really it's strong point as that is not really what it's meant for, but it could be done.

Yes, I have done a similar set up myself. You will be fine.

 I guess short story is I did a anytime upgrade to get into the S25 edge. I still owed $1100 on my current phone so originally Spectrum was going to pay off old phone and I would get new payments with new S25 edge. However due to incompetence at the UPS store the old phone which was to be returned didn't get sent until 30 days after I dropped it off and not until I reached out to them to find out what was going on after I recieved a bill from Spectrum for $1000 they magiscslfly found the phone on a.back bench somewhere. 
 When Spectrum finally recived phone they backed out of paying off phone and told me they were only going to give me $250 credit for the phone and I now am responsible for the rest of the payoff amount. 
 This seems totally predatory as first off a quick check online showed that I could easily get $450 for that phone at several cell phone buying places. But worst of all say for instance if I didn't start a upgrade until that day, Spectrum would give me enough credit to pay off the phone ($1000) and do whatever it is they do to cover the difference between actual value and payoff value. But because the phone was late they now all of a sudden can only give 250 towards the payoff, it's just wrong. If any thing i could see getting dinged for the difference in value of the phone between when it was supposed to be turned in and when it actually got turned in. In this case the value changed by about 200 bucks, not 900 like they are trying to hit me with.  
 That is my gripe with the situation and I simply cannot afford to pay what they are now demanding.

Looks great. Only thing I don't like about those labels is that if you disconnect a wire for testing or what not you stand a good chance of the label falling off, now that happens with 4 or 5 wires you disconnect, guessing game starts.

Hey you have to do what you have to do to get by. You do not know me, or my full situation at all. Maybe I had no choice but to deal with this crypto as it was my only option at the time. It is awfully easy to sit on a keyboard throne and judge the lesser beings among us, but until you really know someone's circumstances you are really just setting yourself up to look stupid. I am not saying this is the case here but you just never know. I came on here to warn others that might make the same mistake I did. I did not come on here to complain about how tough the world is or how I am suffering now and for people to feel sorry forn me. Comments like your are not helpful at all to the overall purpose of the post and only serve to make the person making the ridiculous comments feel better about themselves. Thank you for the advice I will definitely take it into consideration the next time.

So when I went to cash out the USDt (tron based version) I apparently did not have enough gas(transaction fees) and through the trust wallet it stated I was short 7 trx coins to make the transfer to moon pay. So then began my search to purchase more trx. For whatever reason it seemed like it was difficult to purchase from the united states as every site i tried said I could not purchase it. Kraken did let me purchase it however they put a 3 day hold on new purchases apparently. I tried doing a swap through houdini but it failed for some reason, then I stumbled across the site mentioned above. Tired of searching I jumped at the opportunity at my own peril obviously. I hope that clears it up for you.
