Replacements for old TI, GE & Siemens!
The Koyo range of PLC's have a rich heritage and were originally developed and used by Texas Instruments, General Electric and Siemens. The Koyo 305/405 Series offers direct plug in replacements for GE Series one, TI 305/405 Series and Siemens Simatic TI305/405 which are no longer supported by the original manufacturers. Most of these systems can be migrated to newer generation Koyo PLC's with ease (visit our website to view our recent upgrade of the Siemens based DFC Ceramics plant). Contact us for more info.

Wireless Ethernet, High Speed Telemetry
Automation Direct recently launched a WiFi/FHSS Radio modem designed and built in Australia. This unit can be configured as an Access Point/ Bridge/ Repeater/ Client or Router and comes in both 100 and 300mW versions on the 2.4GHz (WiFi) band and is also available in a 1W version on the 900MHz band (FHSS). Prices start from A$995 per unit! For more details please visit our website

Telstra's NextG; CDMA No More? - 3G Router
The recent announcement of Telstra's 3G network has prompted much cause for concern for control system engineers working with cellular telemetry for remote site installations. The traditional CDMA based technology is scheduled for complete phase out by 2008 which means that it is desirable for all new installations to use industrial grade hardware that will work on the 3G network. Telstra plans on using the existing CDMA 850MHz band for its new UMTS (3G) network which means that its going to be quite a challenge finding industrial grade hardware. KAPP Engineering has spent the last month researching hardware that will work on the new 3G network and have hand picked an Australian product that will not just meet, but exceed customer requirements .
