Pentra PLC for remote monitoring and control. Using
WindLDR software, you can remotely monitor or
update the PLC programs without having to be near
the PLC.
Web Server Functions
Using standard web browsers like Internet Explorer
or Firefox, you can remotely log-in and access web
pages that are stored directly on the MicroSmart
Pentra PLC. Up to 1 MB of memory is dedicated for
web page storage! Use the built-in web pages or
create your own using an HTML editor.
14 Simultaneous Connections
The new embedded Ethernet Pentra supports up to
14 simultaneous connections through its Ethernet
port. Through the Ethernet port, the embedded
Ethernet Pentra can be configured to communicate
to WindLDR for maintenance communications, to an
Operator Interface touchscreen, and to VFD using
Modbus TCP communications, all simultaneously.

Advanced PID for precision control
PID (Proportional Integral Derivative) is the most commonly used
feedback control loop in industrial control systems. PID calculates
an error value as the difference between a measured process vari-
OI TouchscreensPLCsAutomation SoftwarePower SuppliesSensorsCommunicationBarriers
able and a desired set point. The controller then attempts to minimize the error by adjusting the process control. With MicroSmart
Pentra PLCs, PID implementation can be deployed in two ways:
integrated PID controls or a dedicated Process Control module,
which can be mounted on the MicroSmart Pentra expansion bus.

OI TouchscreensPLCsAutomation SoftwarePower SuppliesSensorsCommunicationBarriers
FC4A-AS62MMicroSmart AS-Interface Master Module
The Actuator Sensor-interface (AS-Interface) is the simplest and most costeffective of the PLC-based , industrial-networking protocols. AS-Interface is a
truly open, low-cost electromechanical connection system designed to operate
over a two-wire cable carrying data and power over a distance of up to 100m. It
is especially suitable for lower levels of plant automation where simple - often
binary (On/Off) - field devices such as switches, sensors, and actuators need to
interoperate in a local area automation network controlled by a PLC. IDEC supports this open technology.
Master-Slave Principle
The AS-Interface master controls and monitors the status of slave devices connected to the AS-Interface bus. Normally, the AS-Interface master is connected
to a PLC (sometimes called ‘host’) or a gateway.
Various types of slave devices can be connected to the AS-Interface bus, including sensors, actuators, and remote I/O devices. Analog slaves can also be connected to process analog data. Slaves are available in standard slaves and A/B
slaves. Standard slaves have an address of 1 through 31 in the standard address
Controller
IDEC offers a plug-in AS-Interface master module (as well as other AS-Interface
devices, please see AS-Interface Communication section) that is easy to configure; it can also connect up to 62 slaves. With this technology, you’ll reduce the
amount of engineering needed, simplify wiring and enhance your operations;
requiring less maintenance. With an average cost of savings of 15 to 40%
compared with traditional cabling methods, using an IDEC AS-Interface module
is the easy choice.
range. A/B slaves have an address of 1A through 31A in the standard address
range or 1B through 31B in the expanded address range. Among the A/B slaves,
slaves with an address of
1A through 31A are called A slaves, and slaves with an address of 1B through
31B are called B slaves. (see AS-Interface Communication section for more
details)

Automation Organizer Suite
Programming Software
Automation Organizer (AO) is a powerful software suite containing PLC programming software (WindLDR), OI touchscreen configuration software (WindO/I-NV2) and
system configuration software (WindCFG). AO boasts a completely new graphic user interface and redesigned menu icons. AO is a one-stop automation software
package for IDEC MicroSmart Pentra PLCs and IDEC OI touchscreens, and is compatible with Windows XP, Vista (32 bit) and Windows 7 (32 and 64-bit).
All IDEC MicroSmart Pentra PLCs are programmable with WindLDR ladder
logic software. This icon-driven programming tool combines logic and intuition
with an incredibly easy-to-use interface to allow you to take advantage of
MicroSmart features. Even without ladder program experience, you can use the
built-in editors, shortcuts and debuggers to configure programs. WindLDR is an
excellent, long-term investment for your control solutions.
Simulation Mode
WindLDR allows you to simulate ladder programs with built-in Simulation mode.
You can easily test and verify functionality of your ladder program without actual
hardware.
Online Editing
Shutting down your PLC for minor changes can be a major hassle, so WindLDR
allows you to edit and download programs without interrupting PLC operation.
You can write new values to counters, timers and registers at any time without
switching between editor mode (for programming) and monitor mode.
Firmware Download
With WindLDR version 6.4 or later, you have the option to upgrade or downgrade
your CPU system program. It’s as simple as clicking on the checkbox in the
Download dialog box. Now you can easily update your PLC system firmware
with the click of a button.
WindO/I-NV2 software is the programming tool available for all IDEC OI touchscreens. It is used to create projects or programs that can display information
from a PLC, process status, or can be used to input data with virtual switches or
keypads to make changes to a process. The objects are extremely easy to configure with the help of step- by-step navigation. It lets you quickly create colorful
graphical screens in no time using drop-down menus and intuitive drag and drop
functionality for the objects. A workspace is available to help you organize and
manage projects, objects and screens.
WindCFG is a system layout and configuration tool for IDEC PLCs and OI touchscreens. Using WindCFG, you can create a visual layout of the system design
and basic configuration of your PLC and OI touchscreens.
FREE Upgrades
The Automation Organizer suite comes with free lifetime upgrades. Once you
make the initial purchase, upgrades are absolutely free.
