Why Choose the IMO SMT-PC03 iSmart Programming Cable?

The IMO SMT-PC03 is a dedicated RS232 programming and communication cable designed for connecting compatible IMO iSmart intelligent relays to a computer. It provides the physical communications link required to transfer control programs between a PC and an iSmart controller using IMO configuration software.

Designed as an accessory for the IMO iSmart intelligent relay series, the SMT-PC03 enables engineers and machine builders to read programs from and write programs to compatible iSmart controllers. Once connected, the programming software can also be used for commissioning and online monitoring of the connected intelligent relay.

The SMT-PC03 connects to the programming interface on the iSmart unit and provides an RS232 serial connection at the computer end. For computers without a native RS232 serial port, the cable can be used with a suitable USB-to-serial adaptor, providing a practical programming solution for both existing and modern engineering workstations.

Key Advantages

  • Dedicated programming cable for IMO iSmart intelligent relays.
  • Provides an RS232 serial connection between the controller and a PC.
  • Supports reading and writing of iSmart control programs using compatible IMO programming software.
  • Enables communication with the controller for commissioning and online monitoring.
  • Can be used with a suitable USB-to-serial adaptor where the computer does not have an RS232 port.
  • Purpose-designed IMO accessory for reliable iSmart programming and communication.

Key Features

  • IMO iSmart programming cable.
  • RS232 serial PC interface.
  • Direct connection to the programming port of compatible iSmart intelligent relays.
  • Supports program upload and download between a computer and iSmart controller.
  • Supports online communication with compatible iSmart controllers.
  • Designed for use with IMO iSmart configuration and programming software.
  • Can be combined with a USB-to-serial adaptor for computers without a native serial port.
  • Suitable for industrial automation commissioning, programming and maintenance.

Reliable PC Communication for iSmart Controllers

Programming cables provide the communications link required to configure programmable controllers from engineering software. The IMO SMT-PC03 connects a compatible iSmart intelligent relay to an RS232 serial port, allowing control programs to be transferred between the controller and a computer.

When connected to an iSmart system, the SMT-PC03 can be used during initial programming, machine commissioning, program modification and maintenance. Engineers can read an existing program from the controller or write a new program to it using compatible IMO software, making the cable a useful service accessory for machinery incorporating iSmart intelligent relays.
