OptoOPCServer integrates these systems with PCs on an Ethernet network running OPC clients such as Microsoft products, third-party packages, and custom applications you create with tools such as Visual C++. OptoOPCServer is also strongly recommended for applications in which multiple PCs are running the same or different copies of PAC Display Basic or PAC Display Professional HMI projects. OptoOPCServer is available separately or as part of the PAC Project Professional software suite. This is a software product that includes documentation in Adobe Acrobat PDF format. The download file includes other PAC Project software in addition to OptoOPCServer. <less

Programmed just like an Opto 22 hardware PAC, SoftPAC runs your PAC Control strategy independently on an embedded or standalone PC. One SoftPAC is included in the PAC Project Professional Software Suite, or you can purchase SoftPAC separately and use the free PAC Project Basic Software Suite to program it. SoftPAC has the following advantages when compared to a hardware PAC: You can run your PAC Control control program (strategy) in a Microsoft Windows environment rather than on a standalone or rack-mounted PAC. If you are a machine builder or an OEM with a PC already in your product, or if you want to use a PC for a new design, your cost for a controller is reduced. SoftPAC takes advantage of a PC’s ability to quickly read and write to files as well as its greater space for data storage. This makes it especially useful for applications requiring extended file storage, frequent access to files, math-intensive processes, or a large number of control flowcharts running at the same time. For a detailed comparison with hardware PACs, see the SoftPAC Data Sheet (form 2020). This product includes software and documentation in Adobe Acrobat PDF format as a download. The download file includes other PAC Project software in addition to SoftPAC.  <less

A command line installation of PAC Project in silent mode requires no user input once installation has begun. This is useful if you are an OEM machine builder who makes many copies of the same machine, or if you are an integrator or someone at a large company who wants to use an installation script. An .msi installation file is designed for a network-wide installation, and it works with Microsoft network features such as Active Directory. <less
