Introduction • Implementing a modern industrial application can present a challenging and sometimes daunting mix of requirements. For example, it is well understood that a typical control system must interface with signals from simple sensors and actuators, yet for many modern applications this is merely the starting point. Advanced control features, network connectivity, device interoperability, and enterprise data integration are all capabilities increasingly demanded in a modern industrial application. These modern requirements extend far beyond the traditionaldiscrete-logic-based control of input/output (I/O) signals handled by a programmable logic controller (PLC).
Programmable automation controller (PAC) • It’s a compact controller that combines the features and capabilities of a PC-based control system with that of a typical programmable logic controller (PLC). PACs are most often used in industrial settings for process control, data acquisition, remote equipment monitoring, machine vision, and motion control. Additionally, because they function and communicate over popular network interfaceprotocols like TCP/IP, OLE for process control (OPC) and SMTP, PACs are able to transfer data from the machines they control to other machines and components in a networked control system or to application software and databases.
PAC Origins • The ARCAdvisory Group, an analyst group focused on the manufacturing industry, is generally credited for originating the term "PAC". It was first coined in 2001 as a way to help users of control hardware better define their needs, and to give the leading control hardware vendors a term to more clearly communicate the capabilities of their products. • Recently many vendors have begun classifying their new products as PACs, whilst others have come to use the term interchangeably with PLC for the vast similarity among the two technologies.
A PAC is flexible and configurable enough so users can customize and optimize it to meet their particular needs using components for controlling and automating both machines and plants. All parts of the system are designed to maximize software and hardware integration. There should be one programming and engineering tool for the complete system.
SOME FAMILIES AND SERIES 1.SNAP PAC: Part of the Opto 22 SNAP PAC System. Features: • Rack-mounted industrial controller with I/O processor included. • Two independent 10/100 Mbps Ethernet network Interfaces. • Wired+Wireless models add wireless LAN network interface as well. • One RS-232 port with handshaking, suitable for modem communication using PPP • MicroSD card slot for removable data storage • Full-featured control and HMI software included with purchase.
2.WinCON 8000 • ICP DAS USAreleased their first programmable automation controller in early 2003; the WinCON 8000 series. WinCON was the first of its kind-- boasting both control and data acquisition capabilities, otherwise unheard of by its competitors.ICP DAS is a Microsoft Embedded partner-- so they are able to work closely with Microsoft and develop devices that can offer stout industrial capabilities.
ViewPAC is a PAC which combines display, operation and control in one unit.
3.UPAC (universal programmable automation controller): • Hays Cleveland offers the expansion and control capability of PLC’s, the PID performance of multiple loop controllers and the communication options of DCS. Initial investment and maintenance costs are low.

Monitoring and control • Control VS monitoring. • In typical industrial plants >>> operator. • Different terms and technologies; i.e. HMI ,DCS and SCADA : - scale of work. - communication layout. - DDE > dynamic data exchange. • PLCs and PACs : - stand_alone units VS collaborated monitoring and control.
Opto SNAP PAC monitoring and control • PAC display tools : - PAC display configurator basic. - PAC runtime basic.
