SNAP Ethernet I/O Brain - Analog/Digital/Serial Ref: SNAP-B3000-ENET

NOTE: Although fully supported and still in production, this is a legacy product and not recommended for new designs. For new designs, the SNAP-PAC-EB1 brain is more powerful and costs less. Or, if you require PPP communication over a modem, we recommend the SNAP-PAC-R1 on-the-rack controller.

--------------

The SNAP-B3000-ENET Ethernet I/O brain is a compact I/O and communications processor that connects real-world analog, digital, and serial devices with Ethernet networks for monitoring, control, and data acquisition.

The brain can be used in an I/O unit as part of a SNAP PAC control system or in an independent I/O unit.

The SNAP-B3000-ENET is mounted on a SNAP B-series rack with up to 16 analog, digital, and serial SNAP I/O modules. The brain offers local intelligence for I/O features such as latching, high-speed counting,quadrature counters, thermocouple linearization, scaling, clamping, and 16 PID loops.

In addition to I/O features, the brain provides communication options including 10/100 Mbps Ethernet, PPP over a modem connection, Modbus/TCP, OPC, SNMP, and SMTP.

SNAP Ethernet I/O Brain - Digital-only Ref: SNAP-ENET-D64

NOTE: Although fully supported and still in production, this is a legacy product and not recommended for new designs. For new designs, the SNAP-PAC-EB2 brain is more powerful, offers higher-density digital plus analog and serial, and costs less. Or, if you require PPP communication over a modem, we recommend the SNAP-PAC-R2 on-the-rack controller.

--------------

The SNAP-ENET-D64 Ethernet I/O brain is an I/O and communications processor that connects digital devices with Ethernet networks for monitoring, control, and data acquisition. The SNAP-ENET-D64 mounts on a SNAP-D64RS rack with up to 16 SNAP standard digital I/O modules, for a maximum of 64 points of I/O. Note that 32-channel SNAP digital modules cannot be used with this brain.

SNAP Ethernet I/O Brain - Analog/Digital/Serial with Real-time Clock Ref: SNAP-ENET-RTC

NOTE: Although fully supported and still in production, this is a legacy product and not recommended for new designs. For new designs, the SNAP-PAC-EB1 brain is more powerful and costs less. Or, if you require PPP communication over a modem, we recommend the SNAP-PAC-R1 on-the-rack controller.

--------------

The SNAP-ENET-RTC Ethernet I/O brain is an I/O and communications processor that connects analog, digital, and serial devices with Ethernet networks for monitoring, control, and data acquisition.

The SNAP-ENET-RTC is mounted on a SNAP B-series rack with up to 16 analog, digital, and serial SNAP I/O modules.

The only difference between this brain and the SNAP-B3000-ENET is that the RTC brain includes a battery-backed real-time clock to time-stamp email messages and data.

SNAP PAC Ethernet Brain Ref: SNAP-PAC-EB1

The SNAP-PAC-EB1 brain supports all the SNAP I/O analog, digital, serial, and special-purpose input and output modules available on the Opto 22 website. These modules can all be mixed on the same mounting rack and placed in any position on the rack. The brain and modules mount on a SNAP PAC rack, which holds up to 4, 8, 12, or 16 modules.

In addition to I/O processing, the SNAP PAC brain communicates over a standard 10/100 Mbps Ethernet network. The brain is equipped with two switched Ethernet network interfaces. Because these interfaces share a single IP address and act just like an Ethernet switch, SNAP PAC brains can be installed in a multi-drop (daisy-chain) configuration, extending the control network without the added expense of additional Ethernet network hardware. SNAP PAC brains can also be installed in a star configuration using standard, off-the-shelf Ethernet network components.

The SNAP-PAC-EB1 brain supports communication using multiple protocols running simultaneously over Ethernet. Most customers use the PAC Project software suite for control, monitoring, and data acquisition. At the same time, you can communicate using other methods, including Modbus/TCP, SNMP, SMTP, FTP, and OptoMMP. Communication with OPC 2.0-compliant clients is available through OptoOPCServer.

The SNAP-PAC-EB1 brain offers high-speed digital functions, including high-speed counting (up to 20 KHz), quadrature counting, pulse generation and measurement, and TPO (time-proportional output). If you do not need high-speed digital functions, choose the SNAP-PAC-EB2 brain instead.
