SNAP Ultimate Brain
Description
PLEASE NOTE: For new development, we recommend using the new
SNAP PAC R-series controllers instead of SNAP Ultimate I/O. SNAP PAC
R-series controllers are more powerful, have two Ethernet network
interfaces, can run ioProject Professional, and are priced lower. See
Opto 22 form #1594, the SNAP PAC R-Series Controller Data Sheet,
for details.
The SNAP Ultimate brain is an I/O and communications
processor mounted on a standard SNAP rack. SNAP Ultimate I/O
brings processing power, programmability, networking capability,
and enterprise connectivity to the I/O level.
This intelligence, programmability, and connectivity simplifies your
control system design and expands the range of application
solutions you can deliver. Besides running control programs right at
the I/O level and eliminating the need for separate controllers, the
SNAP Ultimate controller/brain also has the ability to
simultaneously communicate with multiple devices using
Modbus®/TCP, SNMP, SMTP, FTP, and other protocols.
The connectivity with standard TCP/IP Ethernet networks first
introduced with SNAP Ethernet I/O also applies to SNAP Ultimate
I/O. You can attach a SNAP Ultimate controller/brain to existing
wired or wireless Ethernet networks, making it easy to add
monitoring and control capabilities. Or you can use standard
Ethernet hardware to build an independent control network,
connecting your PC directly to I/O.
Communication with SNAP Ultimate I/O can also be established via
a modem connection using Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP). Wireless
or wireline modem connections are ideal for remote locations
where an Ethernet network is not practical.
Three models of the compact SNAP Ultimate controller/brain are
available:
•
Features
The SNAP-UP1-ADS interfaces with a mix of Opto 22 SNAP
I/O
Programmable I/O and communications processor
I10/100 Mbps Ethernet, automatic speed negotiation
Simultaneous communication using Modbus/TCP, SNMP,
SMTP, FTP, and OptoMMP protocols
RS-232 serial port for optional modem connection
using PPP
™
analog, digital, and serial modules.

All SNAP Ultimate controller/brains include a battery-backed real-
time clock to time stamp email messages and data log entries. Data
logs are stored locally on the brain for convenient access. A standard
RJ-45 twisted-pair connector provides both 10 and 100 Mbps Fast
Ethernet compatibility with automatic speed negotiation. The brain
also includes an RS-232 serial connector, which can be used for
modem communication, programming, diagnostics, and direct
connection to serial devices.
With an Opto 22 mounting rack and standard SNAP I/O modules,
the brain can be used as a combination controller and I/O unit or
simply as a capable I/O unit. As an I/O unit, it provides distributed
intelligence when used with a standalone Opto 22 industrial
controller such as the SNAP PAC S-series, or with a SNAP PAC
R-series on-the-rack controller.
SNAP-UP1-ADS
SNAP-UP1-D64
SNAP-UP1-M64
The digital-only SNAP-UP1-D64 handles up to 64 points of
simple digital I/O (16 modules) on one mounting rack.
The SNAP-UP1-M64 handles up to 16 analog, digital, and
serial modules on a special rack that can accommodate digital
modules in any location. Digital functions are simplified.
