PAC Control Strategy
Using PAC Control on a PC, you create and debug a program (called
a control strategy) to automate a process. You then download your
strategy to the memory of a SNAP PAC controller, which runs the
strategy independently of the PC. You can easily modify the
program when necessary using PAC Control; however, you can turn
off your PC or use it for other applications while the controller runs
the program. If needed, you can also download a second, alternate
strategy to the controller and then switch rapidly between them
with minimum downtime.
A strategy is composed of a series of process flowcharts or charts,
each of which controls one aspect of the automated process. Each
chart is made up of blocks connected by arrows, which show the
process flow. Each block in a chart contains one or more commands
or conditions, such as Convert Number to String or Start Counter or
Chart Running? The shape of the block indicates its function. For
example, a rectangle is an action, while a diamond is a condition.
An Opto 22 SNAP PAC S-series controller can run up to 32 charts
simultaneously; the SNAP PAC R-series can run up to 16 charts at
once. Many more charts can be included in the strategy.
Strategy Security
PAC Terminal SSD (Secure Strategy Download™) allows you to
safely distribute a strategy and to protect it once it is downloaded to
a controller. PAC Terminal SSD also can ensure that new firmware is
from Opto 22 and has not been modified by anyone.
SSD is available from the Opto 22 website at www.opto22.com.
There you will find instructions on how to register your copy of PAC
Terminal SSD in order to obtain your password and software.

PAC Display
PAC Display Basic is a user-friendly HMI package for building
operator interface applications to communicate with SNAP PAC
controllers. PAC Display offers rich features, including alarming,
trending, security, and a built-in library of 3,000 industrial
automation graphics. PAC Display uses a fast, multithreaded
scanning engine.
PAC Display Professional adds the capability to use redundant
scanners, redundant Ethernet links, or a segmented control network
on SNAP PAC controllers. PAC Display Professional can connect to
legacy ioProject controllers and Ethernet-based FactoryFloor
controllers running OptoControl strategies, and it can also import
projects created in OptoDisplay, a part of FactoryFloor.
The power of PAC Display lies in its close integration with Opto 22
controllers running control strategies. PAC Display monitors these
systems to give operators, technicians, and engineers the
information they need at a glance, while transferring operator
instructions to the control hardware. PAC Display also displays data
trends and x-y plots, logs historic data, and handles alarms.
