Red Lion Crimson protocol conversion software

Control Logic has available Red Lion’s Crimson 3.0 software that provides communication support for more than 300 industrial protocols. Protocol conversion is a key element needed to make the concept of the Connected Factory a reality, empowering plant managers to adapt existing equipment including drives, PLCs and HMIs to drive efficiency while reducing total cost of ownership in industrial environments.

The software enables communications between hundreds of disparate devices and protocols in both a cost-effective and time-effective manner, and also assists with quicker project deployment, better asset utilisation and a greater number of devices actively communicating.

With just a few clicks, the software converts protocols for disparate industrial devices, allowing them to share work-in-process, machine status and other information. Supporting the simultaneous conversion of multiple protocols, the use of Crimson-enabled products allows companies to easily integrate almost any PLC, PC or SCADA system for data collection, monitoring and control of factory floor equipment from different manufacturers.
