Smart Process Control OMRON PLC-based
Process Control brings Major Innovations to Process Automation
● DCS functionality in a
PLC
Diversified Loop Control is even easier to use. Programming becomes even easier with function-block

Basic PID
specification can be achieved using only
function blocks. Moreover, combining
function blocks makes possible a wide
array of control methods, from basic PID
control to cascade control, feed forward
control, and variable gain control.
