PCI-AC51 and PCIe-AC51 User's Guide

*** These products are Obsolete. ***

The PCI-AC51 and PCIe-AC51 are high-speed adapter cards designed to link the Pamux® bus to PCI-compatible or PCI Express-compatible computers.

• The PCI-AC51 is compatible with a standard PCI bus.
• The PCIe-AC51 is compatible with PCI Express.

The Pamux Systems SDK is included with purchase of either card. This user's guide covers installation and use of both cards and the SDK.

NOTE: These cards replace the older PCI-AC28.

PC-Based I/O Overview

This document shows examples of system architecture for PC-based I/O control systems and lists Opto 22 products that work together for PC-based control. System examples include:

• Ethernet systems using SoftPAC, a software-based programmable automation controller programmed with PAC Control
• Ethernet systems using the OptoMMP protocol
• Direct control of I/O using no I/O processor (no brain)
• High-speed control using the Pamux protocol

NOTE: Before choosing to use a PC for control, consider groov EPIC.  A groov EPIC processor offers many features similar to a PC, such as a Linux OS with optional secure shell access; cybersecurity features; Ethernet, USB, and HDMI ports; and the ability to run the control program and HMI on the same hardware. In addition, a groov EPIC system offers real-time control using traditional programming languages; guaranteed-for-life I/O on the same chassis; industrial toughness for hazardous locations; and easier integration with company computer networks, manufacturing, business, and facility systems, and cloud-based services & software.
