What do you like and would like in a timer ?

That is literally a computer (Programmable Logic Controller)? I worked with one of them which had a Motorala 68000 chip . I programmed it to be a washing machine.

Yep it is and very reliable never seen one fail unless drowned in water.

This unit has a LCD display that allows you to change settings on the unit with out a computer to upload ... if not you can program the whole unit with the front buttons .... but its teadeous at best ...... I use a computer for the uploading the program and testing... But its nice to be able to change setting directly on the unit.
