Products include RS-232 and RS-422/485 cards for PCI and PCI Express, and RS-232 PCMCIA cards.

The modular double level DIN rail terminal block features a quick and easy spring clamp connection on one side and an industry standard pluggable terminal block on the opposite side of the block.

Honeywell SIS-Health Monitoring toolset monitors the health and reliability of safety instrumented systems (SIS). The toolset can be customized for specific plant requirements, conditions and process demands.

In-Sight 5600 vision sensors have twice the processing speed and memory of the company's previous products. Standard (640x480) resolution and two-megapixel (1600x1200) models have an IP67 (NEMA 4) rating to withstand dust and wash down.

Sound and Vibration Measurement Suite 5.0 now has Sound and Vibration Assistant interactive software for quickly acquiring, analyzing and logging acoustic and vibration measurements. The S&VM Suite 5.0 is a collection of analysis and signal processing tools for noise, vibration, harshness (NVH); machine condition monitoring; and audio test applications.

DRS26 CoreTech Incremental Encoders are now programmable, allowing users to freely program the width of the zero pulse and the number of lines from 1 to 8,192. This allows users to replace multiple encoders with a single type of encoder that can be programmed at any time, in any location, for any application.

JRBS-57 junction box provides DIN-rail mounting, rugged IP 20 design, and a BUS-in/BUS-out feature that eliminates the need for a separate splitter device.

Enhancements to V 2.0 include adjustable timers, new job logging capabilities to inform the user of projects that are being worked on throughout the day, and a License Miser tool which provides an automatic shutdown process of the AutoCAD session after inactivity.

Enhancements to Model 4990 RTS SystemFlow software suite include a File Manager that simplifies file and data management, a Signal Viewer with enhanced display and analysis functions, and support for RAID and JBOD Fibre Channel disk arrays, boosting real-time recording capacity to 6 terabytes.

Continuum tray magazine provides ergonomic tray loading and consistent high-speed delivery for packaging applications including corrugated, chipboard, and pads.

AR-B1842, based on the Intel Pentium-M, has DDRII SDRAM SO-DIMM memory, slim cooling fan, TV-out, programmable Watchdog, AC’97 Stereo Audio, serial ATA, and CF+ Type II.

Simulation can identify potential problems and process constraints, and alternate scenarios can be validated in a virtual environment saving costs associated with downtime on the plant floor. Price: $3,000.

Edgeware now comes with DualConnectPlus, which provides filtering of string, RFID, and barcode data while extracting the barcode and RFID parameters. It can simultaneously connect serial and Ethernet devices to PLCs and applications.

The HMI modernizes existing Emerson PROVOX systems without the need to change existing PROVOX controller hardware and configuration. Available for batch and continuous applications, the HMI provides redundant S88 batch management.

K50 Series single-point pick-to-light sensor shows the assembler the correct order for selecting parts in a kitting operation, confirms a pick was made, and alerts the assembler that a wrong part was picked. Price: from $110.
