Industrial Communication

PAQi was developed by controls people for controls people. By integrating a PLC in our PAQi controller, we provide an unmatched level of industrial control for image acquisition and traceability and visual inspection. With a built in API between the PAQi PLC and the operational image acquisition and inspection software, controls users can quickly customize PAQi to meet their operational requirements to improve quality control. PAQi boasts robust industrial communications capabilities, facilitating seamless integration with various factory equipment and systems. Its support for industrial protocols enables real-time communication with PLCs, HMIs, SCADA systems, and other industrial devices. PAQi's ability to exchange data in real-time ensures efficient coordination and synchronization within manufacturing the environment.

Features

PLC Compatibility

PAQi is designed to communicate with a wide range of PLC (Programmable Logic Controller) brands and models commonly used in industrial automation. Whether it's Siemens, Allen-Bradley, Omron, or other PLC manufacturers, PAQi ensures seamless integration and communication, allowing users to monitor, control, and automate their manufacturing processes effectively.

Modbus Support

PAQi offers native support for Modbus(Server and Client), a widely used communication protocol in industrial automation. It allows PAQi to seamlessly communicate with Modbus-compatible devices such as PLCs, sensors, and actuators, enabling data exchange for control and monitoring purposes.

Ethernet/IP Connectivity

PAQi's Ethernet/IP compatibility allows it to communicate with devices and controllers using the Ethernet/IP protocol. This capability enables efficient data transfer and control over industrial Ethernet networks, ensuring reliable communication and interoperability with Ethernet/IP-compliant devices. Because PAQi can be configured as an EthernetIP adapter, PAQi can be turned into a smart camera with a few clicks.

OPC UA Integration

With OPC UA (Open Platform Communications Unified Architecture) support, PAQi facilitates standardized and secure communication with various industrial devices and software applications. It enables interoperability and data exchange across different platforms, ensuring seamless integration within complex industrial environments.
