Appliance Transaction Manager

Appliance Transaction Modules - Connectivity Modules for ControlLogix and CompactLogix

Designed for Enterprise-to-PLC or PLC-to-PLC data exchange. Set-up of tag/array data transfer is done graphically via configuration software. Once completed, the modules alone handle all data exchange between the plant floor PLC and business system SQL database - PC in the middle for moving data has been eliminated by the tManager in-chassis PLC module.
