Next Generation Of SmartRelay Launched
IDEC have announced the introduction of the SmartRelay FL1C series which is the next generation of SmartRelay and also updated programming software WindLGC version 4.0.
The SmartRelay FL1A series was introduced approximately 3 years ago to fill the gap between simple relay/timer/counter control circuits and programmable logic controllers (PLCs) Now with the FL1C series, a new 32 bit processor provides faster scan time, double the program memory and 130 function blocks for programming, meaning the number of counters and timers is almost unlimited
