Re: Field Electronics
I don't even know if the guys at AndyMark know everything that goes into the fields. The SCC are a closely kept 'secret'. It is just like its predecessor, the Arena Controller Cabinets that IFI built. Even if you were able to get a list of all the components, you would still need to know how to configure and set-up all the components. Many of the components are from the Allen-Bradley line from Rockwell Automation. This also means that it is going to be pretty pricey to replicate the field electronics.
