Join us at the Fall 2021 CODESYS Tech Talk

Posted by Janice Colmer on Sep 29, 2021 8:26:06 AM

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, and we are once again participating in their semi-annual user conference.

As the only event dedicated exclusively to CODESYS users in the United States, Canada, and Mexico, this CODESYS Tech Talk will focus on the latest 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 many Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) possibilities.

This online event takes place each morning of October 4 - 8, 2021.

Most importantly, don't miss Opto 22's session on Thursday, October 7, 2021:
Opto 22 Senior Application Engineer, Garrick Reichert, will be joined by Jared Bates of Rust Automation & Controls to present a current water district application using the CODESYS runtime engine on groov EPIC. See how Pinebrook Water in Boulder, CO is utilizing groov RIO remote I/O and MQTT to securely communicate back to CODESYS on the EPIC controller.

CODESYS Fall 2021 - Opto 22
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.
