SNAP PAC System Designed to simplify the typically complex process of selecting and applying an automation system, the SNAP PAC System consists of four integrated components: * SNAP PAC controllers * PAC ProjectTM Software Suite * SNAP PAC brains * SNAP I/OTM SNAP PAC Controllers Programmable automation controllers (PACs) are multifunctional, modular controllers based on open standards. Opto 22 has been manufacturing PACs for over two decades. The standalone SNAP PAC S-series, the rack-mounted SNAP PAC Rseries, and the software-based SoftPACTM all handle a wide range of digital, analog, and serial functions for data collection, remote monitoring, process control, and discrete and hybrid manufacturing. SNAP PACs are based on open Ethernet and Internet Protocol (IP) standards, so you can build or extend a system easily, without the expense and limitations of proprietary networks and protocols. Wired+WirelessTM models are also available. PAC Project Software Suite Opto 22's PAC Project Software Suite provides full-featured, costeffective control programming, HMI (human machine interface) development and runtime, OPC server, and database connectivity software for your SNAP PAC System. Control programming includes both easy-to-learn flowcharts and optional scripting. Commands are in plain English; variables and I/ O point names are fully descriptive. PAC Project Basic offers control and HMI tools and is free for download on our website, www.opto22.com. PAC Project Professional, available for separate purchase, adds one SoftPAC, OptoOPCServer, OptoDataLink, options for controller redundancy or segmented networking, and support for legacy Opto 22 serial misticTM I/O units. SNAP PAC Brains While SNAP PAC controllers provide central control and data distribution, SNAP PAC brains provide distributed intelligence for I/O processing and communications. Brains offer analog, digital, and serial functions, including thermocouple linearization; PID loop control; and optional high-speed digital counting (up to 20 kHz), quadrature counting, TPO, and pulse generation and measurement. SNAP I/O I/O provides the local connection to sensors and equipment. Opto 22 SNAP I/O offers 1 to 32 points of reliable I/O per module, depending on the type of module and your needs. Analog, digital, and serial modules are all mixed on the same mounting rack and controlled by the same processor (SNAP PAC brain or rack-mounted controller). Quality Founded in 1974, Opto 22 has established a worldwide reputation for high-quality products. All are made in the U.S.A. at our manufacturing facility in Temecula, California. Because we test each product twice before it leaves our factory, rather than only testing a sample of each batch, we can guarantee most solid-state relays and optically isolated I/O modules for life. Free Product Support Opto 22's California-based Product Support Group offers free, comprehensive technical support for Opto 22 products. Our staff of support engineers represents decades of training and experience. Support is available in English and Spanish by phone or email, Monday-Friday, 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. PST.
