The expansion card is easily configured with the vendor’s Crimson software, and uses a SIM card, allowing users to choose their own cellular provider. Capabilities include a built-in Web server that allows viewing of the same screens viewed on the G3, or viewing of data only or logged files; the ability to upload or download G3 databases without being on site; and a port-sharing feature that allows many PLCs and other attached devices to be remotely reprogrammed through the G3.Red Lion Controls Inc.www.redlion.net717.767.6511
