| Accu-Sort Announces EtherNet/IP Integrated Scanner |
PHILADELPHIA, Pa. (October 28, 2004) --Accu-Sort Systems (ASI), a worldwide leader in AutoID, today announced the release of its AXIOM 400 (TM) laser bar code scanner now standard with EtherNet/IP. Onboard EtherNet/IP allows the AXIOM 400 to connect directly to Rockwell Automation's control architecture without the need for an external protocol converter. Integrated I/O data transfer provides easy access to bar code data from a ControlLogix controller and supports remote control of up for four additional relays (per Axiom) outside the PLC. The new AXIOM 400 simplifies PLC programming, reduces setup time and results in faster implementations. Accu-Sort's configuration software, AXCESS, allows users to quickly and easily setup AXIOM 400 bar code readers and monitor reader performance remotely. EtherNet/IP offers additional networking features such as the setup of multiple Axiom scanners in a controller/client configuration. An Encompass program member with Rockwell Automation, Accu-Sort has long been dedicated to providing customers with Allen Bradley compatible products dating back to the acquisition of the Allen Bradley AdaptaScan bar code reader with DeviceNet in 1999. The AXIOM 400 with EtherNet/IP offers long range bar code scanning for a variety of industrial material handling applications and comes complete with AXCESS, Accu-Sort's Windows(R)- based setup software. Accu-Sort officially launched the Axiom 400 with EtherNet/IP at the 2004 Rockwell Automation Fair in Orlando, Florida, held October 27-28.
