Developments in handheld control for robots
Hand held control for robots is taking a quantum leap forward with the development of a range of next generation application software devices, based on the Microsoft.NET Compact Framework
Such applications would include discrete control systems, CNC/DN and critical event reporting.
The lower the latency generated, the better the speed and throughput for time critical applications.
Almost 5 ms faster than the second fastest device tested, the IA RealPort is part of the Digi One range designed to network enable virtually any serial device in the industrial automation environment.
It allows for the connection of new and legacy serial devices and PCs from anywhere on the factory floor, using any operating system.
Advanced Modbus, Ethernet/IP, Allen-Bradley Ethernet, DF1, Compoway/F, FINS and Hostlink features allow for the improved sharing of information between various factory floor devices.
Advanced SNMP features allow for the management of the industrial device from a centralised location.
"These features make the Digi One IA RealPort more versatile and more cost effective that many other products on the market," said SSS Franchise Manager Matthew Cook.
The IA RealPort features a powered Ethernet, eliminating the need for an external power supply, and it will operate reliably in a temperature range of 0-60C.
The easy-to-use web based configuration saves time and the vertical mounting facility saves valuable cabinet space.
