1.2 LinPAC-8x41 Series
The LinPAC-8000 is the flagship compact embedded controller manufactured
by ICPDAS. Its leading technology gives you all of the best features of both
traditional PLCs and Linux capable PCs. The LinPAC-8000 system is powered by
Linux and brings in the Linux programming style and skill into the world of PC-
based PLC. Application developers can develop their own programs directly into C
or Java language by using the LinPAC-8000 SDK, and then download them into
the LinPAC-8000 for application and use.
The LinPAC-8x41 model type is ruled as LP-8x41, as shown in the above
figure. The Second number shows the slot numbers coming with the main
controller unit. Currently, we provide three types of 0、1、4 and 8 slots. The last
number demonstrates the application platform. 1 stands as the Master controller
and it means that the user needs to design the application program by themselves.
