Well I know I am not the only one interested in electronics here.

I agreed to put together some links for someone who has been a programmer for the last 5 to 10 years.

He is interested in getting a job for a company that is looking to bring IoT to their manufacturing process.

 

Here is a list of links I have for him, and you. If you have anything to add I am interested in hearing from you. (sorry it is nothing but a blob at this point)

 

Here are a list of things off the top of my head that might help you out

 

Here are some channels I follow

They offer the programing lag/IDE  AB is like $1500 for a single family.  Then AB offers other dev packages for doing P{C front ends (very picey)  DA is about $500 for all families. 

I'd stick with the vendor's options outside of RS-484/232/ModBus, etc.  THye have it nailed down.  Rolling your own would be akin to rolling your own encryption.

 

As for websites, AB has WAY TOO many products and its a nightmare to navigate. IMOHO.  DA's is actually easy.  They even offer a free programing IDE for like a 100 word program.  Lets you get your feet wet for free.  And I thing the 'click' version is a full version for free. (but I think it lacks A/D D/A modules)

 

PLCs are one of my main bags.

 

There are also 'programable relays' like micro PLCs.  Can get for $100 or so and free software.  Usually support modbus.
