Description: The SNAP-PAC-R1-W offers all the same functionality as a SNAP-PAC-R1, and it adds wireless LAN communication capability as well. This rack-mounted programmable automation controller provides control, communication, and I/O processing in a compact package. One of four components of the SNAP PAC System, the SNAP-PAC-R1-W is fully integrated with PAC Project software, SNAP PAC brains, and SNAP I/O modules. Used with the included PAC Project Basic software suite (or PAC Project Professional, purchased separately), the Ethernet-based SNAP-PAC-R1-W can handle almost all your industrial control, remote monitoring, and data acquisition needs. System Architecture This intelligent, flexible PAC can be used in several ways. The SNAP-PAC-R1-W can provide complete cell control on its own rack with I/O modules. It can also control SNAP PAC I/O units at the same time for a larger system. Or the R1 can be used in a more extensive distributed control system as an I/O unit controlled by a SNAP PAC S-series standalone controller. It can even be used as intelligent remote I/O for Allen-Bradley Logix PLC systems, such as ControlLogix and MicroLogix. Networking The SNAP-PAC-R1-W includes a wireless LAN interface that supports 802.11a, b, and g network standards. The controller can be used in infrastructure or ad-hoc mode. For security, 802.11i standards are supported, including WPA2-AES as well as WPA and WEP for backwards compatibility. In addition, the PAC includes two independent, 10/100 Mbps wired Ethernet network interfaces. You can use the PAC wirelessly, on a wired network, or both at once. All three interfaces—one wireless and two wired—have separate IP addresses. They can be used to segment the control network from the company network or to provide Ethernet link redundancy in case of link failure or maintenance. In addition, the controller has an RS-232 serial port with hardware handshaking, which can be used for PPP (Point-to-Point Protocol) communication over a modem or for direct connection to serial devices. Programming and Protocols The SNAP-PAC-R1-W is programmed using the included PAC Control software. PAC Control is a flowchart-based tool for developing control applications, or strategies. You create and debug the strategy on your computer and then download it to the PAC, where it runs independently. The controller has 32 MB of RAM and can run up to 16 PAC Control flowcharts at once (many more can be included in the strategy).
