ProSoft Technology has added the 802.11abg Industrial Hotspot to its RadioLinx product line. The RLX-IHW functions as a wireless access point, repeater, or client. Designed for global installations, it offers high-speed wireless Ethernet communications including EtherNet/IP, Modbus TCP/IP, and DNP over Ethernet for linking automation systems, Ethernet I/O, video cameras, and plant network access for mobile workers. The RLX-IHW utilizes orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) for multipath interference rejection, RF multicast packet filtering, and dual frequency bands. For high security applications, the RadioLinx 802.11abg Industrial Hotspot offers WPA2 (802.11i) Advanced Encryption Standard (AES-CCM) encryption and MAC ID Filtering. It is also equipped with RF-based Internet Group Management Protocol (IGMP) Snooping, a tool which allows multicast filtering at the wireless level. www.prosoft-technology.com ProSoft Technology

2012 Salary Survey
In a year when manufacturing continued to lead the economic rebound, it makes sense that plant manager bonuses rebounded. Plant Engineering’s annual Salary Survey shows both wages and bonuses rose in 2012 after a retreat the year before.
Average salary across all job titles for plant floor management rose 3.5% to $95,446, and bonus compensation jumped to $15,162, a 4.2% increase from the 2010 level and double the 2011 total, which showed a sharp drop in bonus.
