Brad PLC/PAC Communication Modules from Molex now supported within Integrated Architecture Builder

“System designers can now specify Brad modules as they define the automation system bill of material (BOM) using IAB,” said Michael Frayne, product manager, network interfaces, Molex Incorporated. “We wanted to ensure our customers could create a complete automation system BOM with communication modules to save them time and money.”



IAB is a graphical software tool for configuring Logix-based automation systems. It helps users select hardware and generate BOMs for applications that include controllers, I/O, networks, PowerFlex* drives, OnMachine cabling and wiring, motion control and other devices.



Outputs of the communication modules include BOMs and reports with quality graphics. Two versions of the reports are available for download. The full version includes all files and the second version is fully functional, but does not include the product documentation and is smaller to download. After downloading the reports, users can get the product documentation via Current Update if desired. Internet Explorer is required for download.
