Hello,
Just want to share my "experience" with newly received CompactLogix 5380. It's the first time I'm going to use this one. (I've been using 5370 for a long time).
When I opened the box I noticed that the controller is missing power terminal blocks, so I started to look for it in the box with no success of course. I thought that maybe I had a bad luck and this one was packed without those terminals. However, after reading the manual I found out that these controllers come without them. They are sold separately. I'm thinking, what a stupid idea is that? Controller needs power to work (right), so why not sell them together, so when I receive one I'm ready to work. Charge me a little more if needed but give me all I need in one box. (Inputs modules 5069-IB16 came the same way - no terminals)
I would like to know what is your opinion on this. (selling controller with no power terminals).
Thanks
