Well, I split the project into two parts. The first is to be able to control my current Siemens Climatics controller using MG90S servos. That's the goal for this winter. The second is to reimplement the whole control unit.

Just ordered servos, so I'm waiting for the to arrive.

nice, maybe to make video about your automation controller, how it works, how to firmware, ...

are your codes suitable only for siemens controller? or any plc?

@geordi any updates?

My boiler is controlled by Siemens Climatix, which is a PLC and it's locked. So the only way to remotely control it thought it's control panel using some servos in a similar way is in this video. Instead of ESP8266, I'm planing to use Arduino. So I'm not planing to directly program the PLC.

I'll post the Siemens Climatix menu structure to be more clear about it.
