Introduction
The SNAP-LCSX and SNAP-LCSX-PLUS controllers are designed for use
with Opto 22’s SNAP or Mistic remote I/O systems and Opto 22’s
FactoryFloor software for industrial automation. The SNAP-LCSX and
LCSX-PLUS controllers provide powerful real-time industrial control in a
compact package.
The SNAP-LCSX and LCSX-PLUS controllers have identical dimensions and
share similar features, such as a single 5-volt power supply requirement
and DIN rail and panel mounting options. Both contain powerful 32-bit
processors capable of a wide range of computing functions. A
SNAP-LCSX controller (shown at right) is the same size as a SNAP power
supply.
The difference in the two controllers is shown below. The SNAP-LCSX has
two serial communication (COM) ports, and the SNAP-LCSX-PLUS has
four.
