PRODUCT OVERVIEW
12 Parker Automation Controller Installation Guide
CHAPTER 1:
Product Overview

Product Description
The Parker Automation Controller (PAC) is a specialized control device with programmable software
designed to automate high-speed, electromechanical processes such as those involved in operating
assembly line equipment. The PAC is engineered to offer a wide variety of input/output arrangements for
fast-motion control, while withstanding the temperature ranges, vibrations, and electrical noise of
industrial environments.
The PAC features a modular design that makes it a highly flexible solution. The PAC connects to a series
of PACIO Modules, which you choose based on the requirements of your specific application. The selection
of PACIO Modules includes a bus coupler, a variety of digital or analog input/output modules, a counter,
temperature modules, and interface modules.
The PAC also accommodates connections to remote I/O Modules, industrial control networks, terminals,
factory displays, and Internet-connected devices such as PCs, notebooks, and even smart phones.
The PAC includes ports for Ethernet and EtherCAT communications. For applications requiring additional
communication capabilities, customers can order the PAC with an optional communication protocol, such
as PROFINET or EtherNet/IP.
The PAC operating system and runtime software reside on a standard Secure Digital (SD) memory card
inserted into a slot at the top of the PAC. LED indicators on the PAC front panel help you to monitor and
troubleshoot the status of
its installation requires only a small screwdriver.
Product training videos are available on our website. These include videos on: Quick Start, Software
Introduction and Configuration, as well as other topics.
Discrete Logic Capabilities: The PAC incorporates an internal, high-speed EtherCAT bus (E-Bus) that can
communicate to locally attached I/O Modules for discrete control and sensing. In addition, the PAC
incorporates an external EtherCAT RJ45 connector for connection of EtherCAT motor drives, remote
discrete I/O (via EtherCAT Bus Couplers) racks or other miscellaneous EtherCAT sensors, and devices.
Motion and 3D Coordinated Motion: The PAC offers two levels of motion control software utilizing
EtherCAT distributed clocks one for simple motion and another for advanced CNC. An external EtherCAT
connector provides communications to up to 32 axes of EtherCAT motor drives.
Visualization: The PAC provides a complete HMI experience by hosting either a Web Visualization or
embedded Xpress application. For more information on programming with Web Visualization or Xpress,
please refer to the Help Men in Parker Automation Manager. PAC Terminal (PT) is a thin client
HMI developed to work seamlessly with the PAC to display the target visualization and transfer the user s
touch input commands back to the PAC.

Communication Interface Protocols: The PAC offers several options for communications to external
devices:
The PAC comes standard with MODBUS TCP Master and Slave capabilities.

PRODUCT OVERVIEW
14 Parker Automation Controller Installation Guide
The PAC has an optional Class 1 EtherNet/IP Scanner and Adapter option to communicate with an
Allen Bradley PLC or other EtherNet/IP devices.
The PAC also offers a PROFINET Slave option via a communication module.
The PAC has an optional OPC UA (Unified Architecture) Server. OPC UA is a machine to machine
communication protocol for industrial automation developed by the OPC Foundation. The OPC UA
Server communicates with suitable OPC UA clients and receives data from the symbol
configuration in Parker Automation Manager.

PRODUCT OVERVIEW

Ethernet Ports
The PAC provides two Gigabit Ethernet ports with full duplex operation at 10/100/1000 Mb/s and half
duplex operation at 10/100 Mb/s. Both ports provide auto MDI, MDI-X crossover support at all speeds. The
RJ45 connectors provide standard Speed and Link/Activity LEDS. Both ports are ESD-protected.
EtherCAT Port
The PAC provides a single, ESD-protected EtherCAT port that operates at 100Mb/s. It features an RJ45
connector as well as three LEDs that indicate the status of the connection. See EtherCAT Status LEDs in
the Troubleshooting chapter for more information on the meaning of the LEDs.
EtherCAT is one of the fastest and most powerful Ethernet-based fieldbus systems available. For example,
EtherCAT can achieve speeds that allow it to address 1,000 I/Os in 30 μs. Its flexible topology and simple
configuration make it ideally suited to control extremely fast processes. Its interconnections among the
PAC at one end, and both the I/O Modules and drives at the other, are as fast as those of a backplane bus.
An EtherCAT-connected I/O bus acts much like centralized control systems, overcoming the issue of bus
transfer times that burden conventional fieldbus systems.
LED Indicators
In addition to the Ethernet and EtherCAT LEDs, the PAC has three LEDS that indicate the state of the
system. LED Status Indicators The multicolor Power LED indicates that the 24V input and all
internal power rails are operational. The multi-color Run/Stop LED indicates the status of the runtime
system. The red Error LED indicates that the runtime system has detected a problem.
USB
The PAC provides two USB 2.0 compliant ports to connect USB Flash drives. Both ports are ESD protected
and have over-current shutdown at loads greater than 500mA (combined, both ports).
SD Card
The PAC is equipped with a 2GB Secure Digital (SD) card (minimum capacity). This card contains the OS,
runtime application, and all projects. Any additional spare or replacement SD cards (part number 33-
026611-01) are recommended to be purchased directly from Parker or a Parker distributor.
Button
The PAC features a button that logs the current IP address of the controller. For more information, see
Push Button
Optional Communication Module
The PAC includes the option for installation of a communication module that is factory configured as a
PROFINET slave. This fully enclosed module snaps onto a carrier board that is, in turn, connected to the
PAC via PCI Express.

PACIO Modules
The PACIO Modules are attached to the PAC Controller to process input and output signals and
communications from the Controller to each of the Modules is via an internal EtherCAT E-Bus network.
The first PACIO Module plugs into the E-Bus connector on the PAC Controller, and each additional Module
plugs in to the proceeding Module, making a chain of up to 20 interconnected Modules. You choose from a
variety of PACIO Modules to add, based on the requirements of your specific application. The selection of
PACIO Modules consists of several different types including a variety of digital or analog input/output
modules, a counter/encoder module, temperature modules, interface modules, and a bus coupler (for
connecting additional PACIO Modules).
Internally, the PAC converts twisted pair EtherCAT to LVDS EtherCAT (E-Bus) and also provides the
module power required by the PACIO Modules. At the end of the modular devices, the connection between
the forward and return lines is automatically closed. This allows an EtherCAT bus coupler to be added to
the external EtherCAT RJ45 connector to provide for additional local or remote PACIO Modules or motor
drives.
