The upcoming 5-day virtual event is your chance to learn, engage and discuss CODESYS tech innovations and engineering in real-time.

CODESYS is a free, platform-independent IEC 61131-3 programming tool for industrial automation systems. And if you use groov EPIC controllers, you already know EPIC supports CODESYS as a control programming option and runtime engine. CODESYS GmbH is one of Opto 22's valued Technology Partners, so we jumped at the invitation to be a part of their annual user conference.

As the only event dedicated exclusively to CODESYS users in the United States, Canada and Mexico, this year's CODESYS Tech Talk will focus on the latest and exciting innovations in all areas related to the engineering of control systems. It is a unique opportunity for engineers to walk away with strategic insights on how to enhance manufacturing strategies and apply new technologies.

During the 5-day virtual event you will have the chance to learn, engage and discuss with CODESYS experts in real-time. You will delve into the CODESYS cloud-based platform, the CODESYS software architecture, and the various Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) possibilities.

This online event takes place each morning of March 8 to 12, 2021.

Most importantly, don't miss Opto 22's session on Tuesday, March 9, 2021:
Opto 22 Senior Application Engineer, Garrick Reichert, will be joined by David Tye, Trimax Senior Automation Engineer to present a current wastewater project application using the CODESYS runtime engine on groov EPIC.

Daily sessions will be from 10:00 am to 12 noon (CT). Experience mornings of live Tech Talk sessions with detailed and exclusive insight into key industrial automation topics through online sessions and technologies, live Q&A, as well as virtual networking and chat opportunities for control engineers.
