The PAC Project software suite is one of the four components of the SNAP PAC System. PAC Project comes in two forms: Basic and Professional.

PAC Project Basic is included free in your purchase of a SNAP PAC controller. It includes everything you need for most automation or monitoring applications: control programming, HMI development, and I/O configuration software.

PAC Project Professional is available for purchase as a suite or as individual software components. It includes everything in Basic and adds OPC communication, database connectivity, additional features, and support for legacy Opto 22 hardware.

This chart compares the features included in PAC Project Basic and Professional. These software suites are part of the SNAP PAC System.

This guide is a comprehensive introduction to the SNAP PAC System. The guide describes the system's four components (software, controllers, brains, and I/O); shows how to build a basic system and how to expand it; and includes installation instructions, wiring diagrams, dimensional drawings, and specifications for parts.

This document contains the release notes for version 9.0 of the PAC Project Software Suite.

This white paper explores some important features of programming software for a programmable automation controller (PAC).

For additional white papers on PACs, see the Guide to PACs.

This document shows you how to use PAC Control, part of the PAC Project Software Suite, to develop control programs to run on SNAP PAC controllers. These programs, called strategies, contain the process logic that controls, monitors, and gathers data from your equipment and devices.

PAC Control strategies form the foundation for other PAC Project software, providing the single tagname database used for HMI creation in PAC Display, for OPC data elements in OptoOPCServer, and for data to be shared with databases in OptoDataLink.

This document provides a quick reference to all commands used in PAC Control, part of the PAC Project Software Suite. PAC Control is control programming software for the Opto 22 SNAP PAC System.

This guide shows you how to use PAC Manager, part of the PAC Project Software Suite, to assign IP addresses, configure I/O, and inspect and maintain Opto 22 SNAP PAC hardware.

This document describes migration options for customers integrating the SNAP PAC System with older Opto 22 systems. It explains the SNAP PAC System's similarities and differences with earlier systems, defines legacy products, and shows how to mix old and new hardware.

Customers moving to the SNAP PAC System may also want to consult form #1693, Legacy and Current Product Comparison and Compatibility Charts.

This document is the Legacy Edition of the PAC Control Command Reference. This guide includes all the commands that apply to both SNAP PAC and legacy hardware.

Use this guide if your PAC Control strategy includes SNAP Ultimate, SNAP Ethernet, SNAP Simple, or mistic I/O units.

If your strategy works with SNAP PAC controllers and brains only, use form #1701 instead of this guide.

This document is the Legacy Edition of the PAC Control Commands Quick Reference. It lists all PAC Control commands used with both SNAP PAC hardware and legacy hardware.

Use this reference card if your PAC Control strategy includes SNAP Ultimate, SNAP Ethernet, SNAP Simple, or mistic I/O units.

If your strategy works with SNAP PAC controllers and brains only, use form #1703 instead of this guide.
