OPTOEMU-SNR-TB is a free toolbar for the Firefox browser that shows real-time energy usage data from an OptoEMU Sensor, right in your browser while you surf the web. You choose the data you want to see. You can also see data in a browser window as a table or graph, or in a desktop widget.

This free toolbar was developed by JayNick.com, LLC, an experienced developer of standalone and browser-based applications for sensor and device communication, data acquisition, and real-time data monitoring.

The PAC Project Software Suite from Opto 22 provides all the software you need for industrial automation, remote monitoring, and data acquisition applications in any field. One of four components of the SNAP PAC System, PAC Project software is fully integrated with SNAP PAC controllers, brains, and I/O.

PAC Project Professional includes the following:

This product includes software and documentation in Adobe Acrobat PDF format on a CD. It also includes complete printed documentation.

Controller-level Redundancy:

PAC Project Professional includes support for controller-level redundancy when used with identical SNAP PAC S-series controllers and the SNAP PAC Redundancy Option Kit (part number SNAP-PAC-ROK). To use controller redundancy, controller firmware R9.1b or higher is required.

SNAP PAC Sim is Microsoft Windows-based software that simulates the control engine of an Opto 22 programmable automation controller (PAC). You can use SNAP PAC Sim with Opto 22 PAC Project software to develop, download, and debug your PAC Control strategy without a hardware PAC.

Note that PAC Sim is a control engine simulator, not an I/O simulator. If you configure I/O units in your strategy, and the I/O units are not on the Ethernet network of the computer running PAC Sim, you will get errors. For more information, click the Related Documents tab below and read the Readme.

IMPORTANT: SNAP PAC Sim is intended for demonstration and testing only and is NOT intended to be used in an actual application. SNAP PAC Sim is time limited and will operate for only 12 hours at one time. After this time has elapsed, the software must be restarted before it can be used again.

Pulse Energy is an online service you can use to view data about your electrical energy usage. Support for Pulse Energy is integrated into the OptoEMU Sensor™; however, if you are not using the Sensor but acquiring energy data using the SNAP PAC System, you can still see that data through Pulse Energy.

This sample chart shows you how to move data from PAC Control into Pulse. Import the included chart into your PAC Control strategy to make integration with a Pulse Energy account easier. The included technical note, form 1992, shows you how to configure a Pulse Energy account and use the chart to visualize your monitored energy values.

The OptoMMP Server is a 100% managed .NET Windows Service that emulates the I/O Unit "Scratchpad" functionality found in Opto 22's SNAP PAC family of Ethernet-connected products. Running on a Windows-based PC, OptoMMP Server provides a high-performance scratchpad engine.

A PAC Control Basic chart to do Base64 encoding and decoding.

Base64 encoding is often used on binary data to be stored and/or transferred (such as in email via MIME) or for encoding passwords.

Import this chart into your PAC Control Basic or Pro strategy. (The chart was developed in PAC Control Basic 8.2 so it can be imported into any PAC Control versions 8.2 or newer.)

This download contains a BETA version of Opto 22's OptoDisplay HMI software.

Beta Version Disclaimer:

OptoDisplay is a legacy product, which is no longer getting new features and no longer going through official release cycles. Beta versions of the software are made available as-is for those who need the related bug fixes.

In general, beta versions will include bug fixes since the last official release, without adding new features. This usually enhances product stability without introducing unwanted side effects. Beta versions for legacy products have been through basic testing only, and will not be formally tested.

Ultimately, the choice will be up to the user as to whether the benefit of using the beta version is worth the risk. We simply want to make the beta version available so that you have options.

Opto.mib is a management information base (MIB) file that describes the Opto 22 network objects, such as SNAP Ethernet-based brains or controllers, that can be managed using the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP). If you are using SNAP Ethernet systems with an SNMP-compliant management system such as Computer Associates' Unicenter®, Hewlett-Packard's OpenView®, or IBM's Tivoli®, you will need to download this MIB file.

Application code demonstrating how to implement an analog trip amp software in ioControl. If an analog input rises above its corresponding alarm setpoint value for more than a specified time, its associated output alarm contact is activated. On falling below the alarm value the output contact switches off again. Both timer setpoint and alarm deadband are configurable for individual analog inputs.

Both ioControl and ioScript examples are included to demonstrate differences in code design. The program was developed in answer to the 09-Sep-2004 OptoForums post "ioControl- timing in strategy."

The OptoAgent Integration supports both SNMP traps and polling to keep Unicenter updated on the current state of the hardware, and alert Unicenter of any problems. It also gives the user the ability to control the Opto 22 hardware.

OptoAgent Integration takes advantage of Unicenter Agent technology to graphically represent the Opto 22 hardware to the user. This Graphical User Interface (GUI) makes monitoring and managing real-world assets intuitive.

OptoAgent gives you the ability to read and write digital and analog I/O points that are attached to the Opto 22 hardware. These I/O points are connected to real-world electrical, mechanical, and electronic devices - such as lights, temperature and pressure sensors, motors, and serial devices. Using Unicenter, OptoAgent, and Opto 22 hardware, you can manage these real-world devices.

You can use ioManager software to configure the Opto 22 hardware and I/O points for use with OptoAgent. You can also configure OptoAgent to send SNMP traps based upon events you define.

Once the Opto 22 hardware and I/O points are configured, you can use OptoAgent View to see information about the Opto 22 hardware and the status and values of digital and analog I/O points.

A piecewise linear interpolator function PLI under ioControl 5.1. The ioScript version can be easily copied to your program. It can be used for any of the following applications:

• Calculating volume from tank level measurement (PV=Level Q=Volume)
• Setpoint Generator (PV=Elapsed Time Q=Required Setpoint, eg Temp or Flow)
• Flow rate profiling (PV=Dif Pressure Q=Flow Rate)
• Split Range Control (PV=Common Output Q=Valve1 profile)
• Adaptive Gain (PV=Secondary Variable Q=PID Gain Value)

This utility allows users to:

• 1. Retrieve values of various tags/variables from a controller
• 2. Open/create a text file with a list of variables, either by hand or by reading tag names from a strategy (.cdb) file
• 3. Save the current values of variables to that same text file
• 4. Read those values back from the text file then
• 5. Send the values to the controller.

(You can skip steps 2-4 if you just want to read and write values but don't need to save the values.)
