A PC-And-PLC Controller

AutomationDirect’s Productivity 3000 is a programmable controller that combines the features and capabilities of a PC-based control system with that of a typical programmable logic controller (PLC). The modular rack-based system supports up to 116,000 I/O points with local, expansion, and remote I/O bases. In addition, the Productivity 3000 comes with the ProductivitySuite programming software, which offers tag name-based programming for better documentation management and more seamless integration with HMIs. Run-time editing also transfers logic edits without stopping the executing program.
