ProSoft Technology has released the Wireless Point I/O adapter (ILX34-AENWG), a high-speed, standards-based 802.11g wireless I/O communication adapter offering an alternative for linking Rockwell Automation controllers to distributed process I/O modules.
The adapter add-on profile uses RSLogix 5000 programming and connection-based EtherNet/IP protocol to simplify configuring and communicating with Point I/O racks scattered throughout the process facility.
The compact size of Point I/O systems, when coupled with the adapter, makes them suitable for collecting data from and controlling moving systems like robots, automated carts, overhead cranes and earthmovers, as well as fixed-position racks in hard-to-reach areas of the process plant.
The adapter can be used in networks with RadioLinx industrial hotspots or third-party 802.11g access points to provide high-speed, low-latency 802.11g client communication over widely spaced plant areas.
For security, the device employs 802.11i WPA2 with AES encryption.
