The SNAP IO4AB Learning Center is billed as a comprehensive system that provides all the hardware, software, and instrumentation required to learn how the vendor’s intelligent distributed I/O can quickly and easily connect to and communicate with Allen-Bradley Logix systems, with no programming required.
Priced at $1,295, the Learning Center includes a SNAP I/O communications processor—called a “brain”—assorted analog and digital modules, an I/O mounting rack,
and the vendor’s EtherNet/IP Configurator software, which is used for
configuring I/O points and establishing and defining communication with
an Allen-Bradley ControlLogix or CompactLogix PLC. Also included are a
load panel for simulating real-world industrial control, monitoring,
and data acquisition applications, and a self-paced, four-lesson
tutorial. Opto 22www.opto22.com951.695.3000
