DICO controllers are powerful CPUs, able to interface with a supervisor PC through TCP/IP or Web-Server protocols and to manage remote I/O modules and intelligent nodes connected on one or more fieldbus systems.

They make it possible to design evolved supervision and control architecture without needing to introduce PC-based systems, with evident advantages in terms of reliability and management.

DICO AB: The new series of DICO A8 industrial controllers, based on a powerful ARM Cortex A8 500 MHZ CPU, are able to interface simultaneously with a number of fieldbus systems: EtherCAT, CAN Bus, Ethernet, RS232, RS485 and RS422.
