Emerson VersaMax Micro Scalable Micro PLCs 00813-0100-0113

Today’s manufacturing environment faces the

critical need for shorter production runs, quicker

changeovers, and just-in-time manufacturing.

Machines are no longer dedicated to a single

product and long production runs. VersaMax

Micro helps you address this challenge as a

scalable solution with precise and powerful

control in a compact design. With the flexibility

to enhance machine performance, availability,

and profitability, the modular VersaMax Micro

offers the features to match your application needs.

Application Flexibility and Scalability

VersaMax Micro PLCs  provide the scalability and flexibility

to cover a broad range of  applications. For applications that

require more I/O, up to four modules can be used to expand

the series of controllers. For smaller machines, units can be

used as a standalone controller with integrated I/O functions.

With I/O expansion modules and support of a portable

program FLASH memory module, the VersaMax Micro PLCs

provide the flexibility to configure a solution to your exact

requirements and budget.

Big Features in a Compact Package

The small footprint VersaMax Micro PLC offers  the flexibility

of modular design and a variety of built-in features, including

up to 64 I/O points (expandable to 176 I/O points), fast cycle

times, a robust instruction set and extensive memory that

multiplies your programming options.

A Variety of Communications Options

All units have a RS-232 port that can be used for SNP slave,

Modbus RTU or serial I/O commands, and  select units have

an RS-485 port that adds SNP master and Modbus master

commands. The Micro 20. Micro 40 and Micro 64 also have a

second option port that supports either RS-232. RS-485 or USB

communications module. The VersaMax Micro  PLCs are easily

networked to Ethernet with the powerful VersaMax SE (Serial

to Ethernet module).

Performance to Improve Productivity

The VersaMax Micro family is designed to provide the

power and performance of customized solutions with the

convenience and economy of off-the-shelf technology.

VersaMax Micro PLCs have two  channels of high-speed

control, two independent 65kHz pulse and direction outputs,

and user configurable inputs and outputs to effectively

increase machine performance. With VersaMax Micro PLCs

you  can reduce costs and save time on machine configurations

without compromising the ability to customize the features

that are right for your application.

Simplified Programming for PLCs

With PAC Machine Edition software, programming your

VersaMax Micro PLCs is an intuitive process. Mix Relay Ladder

Diagram and Instruction List programming within an

application. Develop and save custom view tables. View PLC

and I/O system fault tables on demand. PAC Machine Edition

deploys HMI, motion, and multi-target control in an integrated

development environment. This provides a common user

interface, drag-and-drop editing, and a rich set of development

tools. The Micro 20. Micro 40 and Micro 64 support a portable

program FLASH Memory Module that provides a simple cost

effective way of upgrading field controllers.
