The PAC"Programmable Automation Controller" PAC is a compact controller that combines the features and capabilities of a PC-based control system with that of a typical programmable logic controller (PLC). A PAC thus provides not only the reliability of a PLC, but also the task flexibility and computing power of a PC. Additionally, because they function and communicate over popular network interface protocols, PACs are able to transfer data from the machines they control to other machines and components in a networked control system and PDMM or PCMM can backup/restore EtherCATEtherCAT is an open, high-performance Ethernet-based fieldbus system. The development goal of EtherCAT was to apply Ethernet to automation applications which require short data update times (also called cycle times) with low communication jitter (for synchronization purposes) and low hardware costs devices (at present, only AKD drives) on an EtherCAT network. This feature is useful as a maintenance operation to replace any AKD drives in an operational machine. This feature reduces the manual steps for saving/loading each AKD drive’s firmware and parameters into a few simple automated steps. The Backup/Restore functionality is located in the controller's web server and is accessible from a web browser. For details about the web server see Using the KAS Web Server.
