All SNAP PAC brains provide local intelligence that frees the Part Numbers controller for supervisory tasks. For example, each brain Part Description independently handles functions such as latching, counting, thermocouple linearization, watchdog timers, and PID loop Ethernet-based analog, digital, and serial I/O and communications processor, with two control.

OptoDataLink for database communications, and View from top additional features. Brain SNAP I/O modules In addition to using a SNAP PAC controller with PAC Project software, you can communicate with SNAP PAC brains using the open and documented OptoMMP protocol. A free OptoMMP Communication Toolkit is available on our website, Rack www.opto22.com. This toolkit includes ActiveX components and C++ classes, so you can use programming tools such as Visual Basic or Visual C++ to communicate with the brains. See form 1465, the OptoMMP Protocol Guide, for more information. SNAP PAC EB brains support all SNAP analog, digital, and serial Ethernet brains can also communicate with Allen-Bradley input and output modules. SNAP PAC SB brains support all RSLogix systems using EtherNet/IP (see Opto 22 form SNAP analog and digital modules. 1770, the EtherNet/IP for SNAP PAC Protocol Guide, on our These modules can all be mixed on the same mounting rack website). and placed in any position on the rack, to accommodate the In addition, Ethernet brains communicate using Modbus/ required mix of signals at any location. Each SNAP I/O module TCP see Opto 22 form 1678, the Modbus/TCP Protocol Guide, provides from 1 to 32 I/O points, depending on the module. for more information. The same racks and modules are used with Wired+Wireless EB brains as with regular EB brains. No additional hardware is needed for wireless communication.
