Redundant Controller Runs Reliably
The PACSystems High Availability controller has two physically independent controllers with an automatic switchover system for redundancy. The controllers have dedicated and redundant links to one another, operate synchronously, and transfer all of the application's variables, status, and I/O data with each data sweep. Each controller has a Pentium 300 MHz CPU, Cimplicity Machine Edition software, and support for Ethernet, Profibus, DeviceNet and Genius networks.  GE Fanuc: 410/242-0300; www.gefanuc.com
