• Taylor/ABB systems as far back as the MOD 3,
• MOD 30,
• Batch and Continuous processes across the all software releases,
• Wireless, MODBUS, RS232, RS422, PLC, PC, and various other connectivity and networking issues.

Currently, MOD 300 and Advant are legacy systems; however, we continue to provide full support for them and other members of the ABB family such as:
• Net and Infi-90,
• Masterworks,
• DCI (from Fischer & Porter),
• Process Portal B / Portal A HMI, and many others.
