IDEC strives to give you the best product, and our controllers are just that! Offering speed, power, performance and precision are just the tip of the iceberg. The true benefit to using an IDEC controller is that it will cut your development time in half. These reliable controllers are easy to use, easy to maintain and easy to repair. No boards to build and maintain. No approvals to get. No spare parts to worry about. Just a simple, ready-made solution that won’t require time you don’t have to give. Instead, count on saving time with faster response, better throughput, reduced waste and less downtime.
NEW Analog and Communication Modules
Two new analog expansion I/O modules are now available. With fast conversion times and 16-bit resolution, these modules allow you to configure as many as 56 analog I/Os, while gaining increased system throughput. And with 56 available PID loops, you get all the PID control you need. Optional communication modules are also available enabling you to configure up to seven serial devices with your MicroSmart Pentra. Now you can connect your HMI, PC, barcode reader, RFID equipment, printer and more. Both communication and analog modules easily snap-on to the right side of MicroSmart CPU modules without needing extra cables or requiring complex wiring.

Highlights of MicroSmart Controllers
Global Standards
All MicroSmart controllers have regulatory agency certifications for the worldwide market including: cULus Listed for Class I Division 2 hazardous locations, CE compliant, and certified for marine use by Lloyd’s Registry.
Compatibility
For added convenience, the same expansion I/O modules and accessories can be used on both the MicroSmart and MicroSmart Pentra controllers. In fact, both controllers also share the same architecture, instruction set and programming software. The use of a single platform for all IDEC PLCs means you won’t have to reprogram or learn a new system to alternate from one to another.
Simple Programming
Relax. Programming doesn’t need to be hard or take a lot of your time. With IDEC WindLDR Software, you can configure, modify and monitor your MicroSmart programs with ease. This powerful and intuitive software makes it simple to get your system up and running. Now supporting Online Editing and Simulation mode.
Compact and Modular Design
Every CPU module comes equipped with embedded I/O points or you can conveniently add additional snap-on expansion modules for up to 512 I/Os based on your system requirements. All IDEC controllers are DIN-rail and panel mountable.
Customizable Structure
Feel the freedom. The ability to customize for the functions you need allows you to create the perfect system for your applications. Add an HMI module, a Real Time clock module or even an optional EEPROM module.
