The SNAP-PAC-S2 has four serial ports that can each be configured
using PAC Manager as either RS-232 or RS-485 (2-wire or 4-wire).
These serial ports can be used for I/O or for general-purpose serial
communication. For the default configuration settings of these
ports, see form 1592, the SNAP PAC S-series User’ s Guide.
Configured as RS-232, the ports support remote serial device
communication, and any one of the ports can be configured as a
PPP modem connection for creating a TCP/IP network over PSTN
(Public Switched Telephone Network) lines. Configured as RS-485,
the serial ports connect to legacy Opto 22 mistic™ I/O units,
including the serial B3000 brain and remote mistic bricks, and to
SNAP PAC SB-series serial brains.
For additional serial host interfaces, you can add one or more SNAP
serial communication modules on attached SNAP Ethernet-based
I/O units.
Backward Compatibility
S-series controllers have RS-485 serial interfaces for connecting to
Opto 22’s legacy mistic I/O units. The SNAP-PAC-S1 and SNAP-PAC-
S1-FM have one RS-485 port, and the SNAP-PAC-S2 can be
configured with up to four. This connectivity with legacy serial-
based I/O systems, combined with PAC Control Professional’s ability
to import control programs (or strategies) written in OptoControl
software, provides a migration path to integrate older Opto 22 I/O
systems into modern control hardware running on Ethernet
networks. For detailed information on updating control strategies
and integrating legacy control hardware into modern systems, see
the FactoryFloor to PAC Project Migration Technical Note (Opto 22
form 1692).
Software
SNAP PAC controllers use Opto 22’s PAC Project Microsoft
Windows
programming, human-machine-interface (HMI) development, and
OPC and database connectivity. Two versions of PAC Project are
available:

SNAP PAC S-Series Controllers
PAC Control Basic is a graphical, flowchart-based programming
tool for machine control and process applications. Using PAC
Control, you create, download, and run strategies on a SNAP PAC
controller. In addition to flowchart programming with subroutine
capability, PAC Control includes a powerful, built-in scripting
language based on C and other procedural languages. PAC Control
Professional adds capabilities to import OptoControl strategies, to
support mistic I/O units, and to use a SNAP PAC controller’s
independent Ethernet ports to segment communication links.
PAC Display Basic is an intuitive HMI package for building
operator interfaces, or projects, for communicating with a SNAP PAC
controller. PAC Display offers a full-featured HMI including alarming,
trending, and a built-in library of 3,000 industrial automation
graphics. PAC Display Professional adds the ability to import
projects created in OptoDisplay, part of the Opto 22 FactoryFloor
software suite, and to use redundant communication links on SNAP
PAC controllers. PAC Display Professional can also connect to
Ethernet-based FactoryFloor controllers running OptoControl
strategies or ioProject controllers running ioControl strategies.
OptoOPCServer (PAC Project Professional only) is a fast, efficient
OPC 2.0-compliant server for communicating with many Opto 22
products, including SNAP PAC controllers running PAC Control
strategies, SNAP PAC brains, SNAP Ultimate controller/brains, SNAP
Ethernet and SNAP Simple brains, and Ethernet-based FactoryFloor
controllers running OptoControl strategies.
Using OptoOPCServer, you can consolidate data from all these
Opto 22 systems into the OPC client software of your choice, such as
third-party HMI and data acquisition packages, and custom
software applications you create with tools such as Visual C++
OptoDataLink (PAC Project Professional only) transparently
provides multiple connections for data exchange with popular
databases such as Microsoft SQL Server, Microsoft Access, and
MySQL. OptoDataLink connects your SNAP PAC system with the
tools used for making business decisions, bringing realtime,
accurate data to decision makers.
PAC Manager is a utility application for assigning IP addresses to
SNAP PAC controllers and brains, reading or changing basic
controller configuration, upgrading firmware, and inspecting or
testing controllers and I/O.
Software Availability
PAC Project Basic is included with SNAP PAC controllers and is a free
download from the Opto 22 website. PAC Project Professional is
available for purchase. You can also separately purchase PAC Control
Professional, PAC Display Professional, OptoOPCServer, and
OptoDataLink as needed. For additional information, see the PAC
Project Data Sheet, Opto 22 form 1699.
