FactoryLink^® running on Windows NT/2000/XP^®

  (Click on thumbnail to view image)

This product allows FactoryLink to communicate with multiple GE 90-30 and GE 90-70 programmable logic controllers. Using standard COM1 and COM2 serial ports to communicate with either single or multi-dropped PLCs via the built-in RS-485 SNPX port on the PLC, this provides cost-effective communication with single or multiple PLCs located throughout a plant. No extra PCIM or CMM modules are required for communications, and low cost twisted pair wiring can be used.
