Video transcript

Host:
Hello. And welcome back to…

Group:
Oh My PLC!

Host:
The only game show about PLC devices that I'm the host of. In case you're just joining us, the rules of the game are simple. I ask a question and the first one of our contestants to buzz in with the correct answer gets a point, which can be stolen by competitors. Talk about a high-voltage situation. Let's get to playing. New PLCs can be powered by three types of power sources: AC, DC, and blank. What is the third current type?

Josh:
Tesla. No, wait, not Tesla. Slayer. Jackle. No. Black Sabbath Back in Black. AC/DC Thunderstruck.

Host:
Would any of the other contestants who are actually familiar with PLCs like to take a guess?

Josh:
What is UC or universal current, Alex?

Host:
Again, not my name, but that is correct. Travis, for what we're still somehow calling a steal.

Travis:
Universal current is a new concept that allows a single PLC to be used for both AC or DC voltage applications. This makes an OEM's choice of PLC easy, since they no longer have to guess as to which to choose, nor do they have to carry excess inventory.

Host:
Oh yeah. More like OMG. They've done it again. Travis gets a steal.

Travis:
Ooh.

Host:
Don't touch that dial. We'll be right back with another exciting round of.
