2022 NED Innovation Award Finalist
Machine builders can design and program standalone machines more efficiently with the Allen-Bradley Micro850 and Micro870 2080-Lx0E controllers using the latest Connected Components Workbench software release. These controllers ease project implementation with the new DNP3 protocol, a set of open standard communication protocols used in SCADA and remote monitoring systems for precise data reporting. The controllers have also expanded DF1 support, two-way simultaneous and two-way alternate communications, to help improve CIP Serial communications through full and half-duplex and radio modem modes.
These connectivity capabilities address more application requirements, specifically in the water/wastewater industry. In addition, the extended protocol support minimizes conversion risk for MicroLogix to Micro800 control system modernization. Users can boost productivity with improved controller execution and I/O response performance.
