Eaton easyE4 Starter Kit EASY-BOX-E4-UC1, Logic Controller with Ethernet, 12/24 V DC, 8 DI, 4 DO, easySoft V7

Automation projects often stall before they begin—selecting a controller, sourcing a power supply, and setting up programming software can be a barrier. The Eaton easyE4 Starter Kit removes that friction by bundling the essential hardware and software in one package.

Who is it for

This kit suits technicians, engineers, and educators who need a reliable logic controller for small to medium automation tasks. It is ideal for learning PLC programming, prototyping, or deploying simple control systems.

Main features

• Includes the easyE4 control relay (EASY-E4-DC-12TC1) with 8 digital inputs and 4 transistor outputs.
• Four of the inputs can be configured as analog inputs (0–10 V), expanding sensing options.
• Integrated Ethernet and USB ports for programming and communication.
• Built-in display for local status monitoring and diagnostics.
• Comes with easySoft V7 programming software supporting ladder diagram, function block diagram, structured text, and easyApp.
• Expandable with up to 11 modules, reaching a maximum of 188 I/O points.
