Opto 22 Intelligent Remote I/O for Allen-Bradley Logix Platforms

When:   October 9, 2008, 10:00am to 3:00pm
Where:  Embassy Suites Hotel – Livonia, MI
RSVP:   MMcAlpine@Kundinger.com

Are you looking to expand the I/O capabilities of your Allen-Bradley ControlLogix or CompactLogix system?

Please join us for a half-day technical seminar, hosted by Opto 22, to learn how you can add intelligent remote I/O to your Allen-Bradley PLC/PAC systems—all without programming!

This approach optimizes PLC & network performance by moving processor-intensive tasks such as analog scaling, thermocouple linearization, and PID loop control into your I/O system, without added programming or complexity.

This seminar is essential for users, machine builders, and systems integrators involved with Rockwell Automation/Allen-Bradley systems.
