DATA SHEET In addition, PAC Project Professional adds: • OptoOPCServer™ for OLE for Process Control (OPC) communication with OPC 2.0 clients • OptoDataLink™ for sharing SNAP PAC System data with ODBC-compliant databases Both PAC Project Basic and PAC Project Pro include the following: • PAC Control™ for developing control applications to run on an Opto 22 SNAP PAC controller • PAC Display™ for developing human-machine interface applications (HMIs) for technicians and operators • PAC Manager™ for configuring and inspecting Opto 22 SNAP PAC controllers, brains, and I/O PAC Project Professional complete software suite and documentation on CD, plus printed documentation Easy to use and suitable for projects from simple equipment management to full industrial control, the PAC Project Software Suite comes in two forms: PAC Project Basic and PAC Project Professional. PAC Project Software Suite Control programming, HMI development, OPC communication, and database connectivity in one integrated package Single tag database is used by all components I/O points and variables have user-defined names; commands are in plain English Easy-to-use graphical interfaces for development and debugging Fully integrated with SNAP PAC controllers and the SNAP PAC System

PAC Project Software Suite PAC Control PAC Project is one of four components of the SNAP PAC System. The other three are: PAC Project Software Suite PAC Control is an intuitive, flowchart-based programming and debugging tool for industrial automation, remote monitoring, and data acquisition applications. Using PAC Control, you create, download, and run control programs on a SNAP PAC standalone or on-the-rack controller. SNAP PAC controllers. SNAP PAC programmable automation controllers run PAC Control strategies. SNAP PAC R-series controllers mount on the rack with the input/output (I/O)...

PAC Project Software Suite For a comparison of features available in PAC Control Professional and PAC Control Basic, see “PAC Project Basic and Professional Comparison” on page 7. PAC Control Strategy Using PAC Control on a PC, you create and debug a program (called a control strategy) to automate a process. You then download your strategy to the memory of a SNAP PAC controller, which runs the strategy independently of the PC. You can easily modify the program when necessary using PAC Control; however, you can turn off your PC or use it for other applications while the controller runs the...

PAC Project Software Suite Integration PAC Project Software Suite SNAP PAC industrial controllers are programmed using PAC Control. When you build a control program, or strategy, using PAC Control, the database of I/O and variables you create in PAC Control is automatically shared with PAC Display. This single tagname database eliminates the need to create duplicate databases and eliminates tagname-related errors. Ease of Use In PAC Display you construct your operator interface, referred to as a project, by designing graphical objects and then linking them to tags in the corresponding PAC...

Ethernet network PAC Project Software Suite OptoOPCServer SNAP PAC EB brain OptoDataLink Where multiple PCs are running the same or different PAC Display projects, OptoOPCServer works closely with PAC Display to provide fast data scanning. In fact, OptoOPCServer is the critical component for scaling up a PAC Display monitoring system for optimum performance. SNAP PAC R-series controller Since OptoOPCServer can communicate with both the SNAP PAC System and legacy Ethernet-based Opto 22 systems, you can consolidate data from all these systems into the OPC client software of your choice....
