what is the different between plc and dcs ?
I know full name of this two but I want to know what
structure and working style and speed I/O capacity and
controller difference?

Answer Posted / vikram babu t.r

The Basic difference between the PLC and the DCS is PLC is
Programmable Logic Controller in an n/w it control program
logically.DCS is Distributed Control System it will
distripute and control the system in a n/w or more. So Group
of PLC is know as DCS.
