The Memor pocket-sized Windows-powered mobile computer is an extremely compact, lightweight, versatile and robust device that combines integrated bar code reading and wireless communication capabilities. It is suitable for light industrial operations such as warehouse management, inventory, picking, shipping, receiving, etc.

The Wireless Logic Controller platform simplifies the integration and development of automation systems and enterprise control solutions with hardware, user programmable IEC 61131-3 standards-based middleware, and end-user data communications. Development, monitoring and control is made easier through the use of integrated cellular communications, industrial hardened I/O, and standard fixed-wire networks integrated into one rugged design.

Zlinx wireless remote I/O maps directly into a Modbus table, making it an easy fit to any PLC, HMI or PC based control system running LabVIEW or other popular automation software. Wireless modules provide Modbus compatible communication at ranges up to 20 miles.

These sensors are designed to measure rotating drive torque using a conventional shaft-to-shaft configuration for in-line placement. The design incorporates a digital non-contact wireless system that provides power to the rotating electronics mounted on the shaft and transmits the signal back to the receiver in digital format.

GS110 Process Imaging System for Low Emissivity (Low-E) glass monitors one-side coated flat glass. With the addition of an IR point sensor to measure the temperature on the uncoated side of the glass where the emissivity is both known and significantly higher, the GS110 can automatically correct the thermal image and provide a more accurate result.

InRAx Wireless Ethernet/IP Communication Module (MVI56-WA-EIP) acts as a wireless bridge, enabling remote connectivity between a ControlLogix processor and 802.11 wireless devices including PCs, Laptops, radio modems, and other modules. It allows programming over the backplane and acts as a server to RSLinx, allowing for multiple programs such as RSLogix5000 and/or RSView products to communicate simultaneously with the processor.

Two new EtherNet/IP module options for the Allen-Bradley ControlLogix include USB ports, easy setup and replacement. The modules work with existing EtherNet/IP products and provide capacity to allow for future expansion of user networks. They use the Intel IXP465 network processor chip designed specifically for the rigorous performance demands of manufacturing environments.

The Industrial Ethernet Module enables fast, low-cost connection of devices to ETHERNET Powerlink, EtherNet/IP and PROFINET. The module is based on an Altera-FPGA and contains the CPU (NIOS II), an Ethernet Controller and an integrated 2-port hub, which is routed out via an RJ45 connector. Depending on the version, the protocol software for implementation of an ETHERNET Powerlink controlled node, a PROFINET device or an EtherNet/IP adapters is already on the module.

The PROFINET IO development kit enables simple implementation of PROFINET I/O devices according to the PROFINET standard and supports real-time (RT) operation.

The new Scalance™ X family of industrial Ethernet switches delivers low ownership cost while providing four options of high-performance gigabit communication.

The TopView Remote Viewer has been ported to the Windows Mobile platform. Users can remotely monitor tags and alarms, view alarm history, and perform acknowledgement from any Windows Mobile Device including PDAs and Smart Phones. With built-in WI-FI support and extended data networks provided through most cellular carriers, users can now monitor and acknowledge alarms from anywhere wireless or cellular service is available.

HMS will complement its family of interchangeable Anybus communications modules with embedded interfaces for PROFINET with IRT.
