Oh no, real time not needed. I would say there are maybe 40 switches right now and probably 20-25 hydro valves. With some better placement and logic I think probably half of the switches could be passed to the bin (you should see the electric wiring...). I can easily run the entire machine with an Arduino and relay boards. But my plan was to use the Classic Ladder and use a GUI panel for timer settings, showing states etc.
