A programmable logic controller (PLC) or programmable controller is an industrial computer that has been ruggedized and adapted for the control of manufacturing processes, such as assembly lines, machines, robotic devices, or any activity that requires high reliability, ease of programming, and process fault diagnosis.
The Kernel-Mode Driver Framework (KMDF) model continues to allow development of kernel-mode device drivers but attempts to provide standard implementations of functions that are known to cause problems, including cancellation of I/O operations, power management, and plug-and-play device support.
Siemens SIMATIC S7-300 PLC CPU with three I/O modules attached. As with other programmable logic controllers, SIMATIC devices are intended to separate the control of a machine from the machine's direct operation, in a more lightweight and versatile manner than controls hard-wired for a specific machine. Early SIMATIC devices were transistor ...
The Common Industrial Protocol (CIP) is an industrial protocol for industrial automation applications. It is supported by ODVA.. Previously known as Control and Information Protocol, [1] CIP encompasses a comprehensive suite of messages and services for the collection of manufacturing automation applications – control, safety, synchronization, motion, configuration and information.
Omron was established by Kazuma Tateishi (立石一真) in 1933 (as the Tateisi Electric Manufacturing Company) and incorporated in 1948. The company originated in an area of Kyoto called "Omuro (御室) ", from which the name "Omron" was derived. Prior to 1990, the corporation was known as Omron Tateisi Electronics. During the 1980s and early ...
