RCS-PLC Remote Control Station
Don't want to use our New Concept in Control ?
For Users who prefer the Traditional arrangement of a PLC and Seperate Operator Interface. Horner offers the Remote Control Station (RCS) a feature packed Midrange Capable PLC at low end Prices.
CONTROL
The RCS has a ladder-based control engine that is powered by the highly-rated Intel 296 processor. This processor provides speed comparable to most mid-sized PLCs and is exactly the same as used in the OCS 100/200 family.
INPUT/OUTPUT
The SmartStack I/O expansion system allows the RCS to use both digital and analog I/O boards. Up to 4 I/O boards may be stacked onto a single RCS unit, giving you flexibility with various I/O combinations.
OPERATOR INTERFACE
Designed to be used with or without a seperate operator interface. Horner offers its TIU Range - a feature packed range of HMI that can be easily configured to communicate with the RCS.
NETWORKING
A benefit of the RCS is that it can connect to versions of the TIU that use our CAN based protocol CsCAN . This leaves the TIU with a Serial port free to communicate with a device of your choice.
When used with a fieldbus TIU on a Serial link the RCS can easily connect to popular Fieldbus networks.
Ethernet is also available via a Plug In Smartstack Module.
Cscape software provides graphical ladder diagram programming (IEC-1131 compliant) . Design engineers and end users will enjoy reduced development time with a straightforward approach to programming that integrates logic, and networking into a single solution operating in the Windows environments.
Relay Ladder Logic
- Floating Point Math
- Motion Commands
- Serial Read and Write Commands
While the RCS and Standard TIU is perfect for stand-alone applications, the true differentiator of the RCS is the integrated network. Standard with a CAN network port the RCS allows the user to choose between the industry standard DeviceNet slave protocol, or Horner's own true peer-to-peer protocol, CSCAN. Both offer high performance fieldbus networking.
DeviceNet is a master/slave protocol with limited peer-to-peer data exchange. The CsCAN protocol is optimized for peer-to-peer data, and is ideal for distributed control and data-collection applications. Using either protocol, OCS offers the ability to program, monitor, or debug any node on the network simply by having a serial connection at any location.
MINI RCS
Built on the miniOCS chassis and feature set, the miniRCS range offers first-rate performance for an affordable price.
All miniRCS units feature 64Kb of ladder logic memory, 8Kb of register memory, and one RS-232 serial port. MiniRCS units are available rith or without CAN network. The network may be configured for CsCAN or DeviceNet slave. When configured for the CsCAN network, SmartStix I/O is supported.
MiniRCS feature local I/O available in the same range of models as the miniOCS (tab Technical Specs).
