Distribute your control tasks

The extremely cost-effective compact controls of the sysWorxx Automation Series combine simplicity and outstanding performance. Thereby the compact design with its high IO density not only saves valuable space in the switching cabinet, but also guarantees best price-performance ratio. Dividing the system into smaller yet intelligent units in spite of large centralized controls benefit in money's worth.

Integrated networking via CANopen makes easy the connection of operator panels, visualization units, drives and other groups of peripherals. Access distributed process data as easy as local variables. The integrated CANopen network management automates the network configuration and lets you concentrate on the essentials.

The sysWorxx gateway modules make easy the connection of distant networks. Substructures in the field bus level allow for separation of high-speed line bus for process IO and low-priority management bus. Intelligent gateway functionality simplifies the access to subordinated nodes significantly.

A perfect match – CANopen and IEC 61131

Take advantage of most convenient IEC 61131-3 compliant programming utilizing all five programming languages. Thereby a comprehensive library provides complete CANopen services for master and slave devices. The seamless integration of CANopen into the programming system lets you solve even complex automation tasks more efficiently.

This makes the sysWorxx Automation Series ideally suited for the distributed control of machines and systems in autarkic units or cells with integrated intelligence. Here again, CANopen enables real-time communication between the system units and guarantees easy expansion of the system.

Connect, configure and you are done!

Due to its simplicity sysWorxx modules expand your system just as your application grows. That helps you to achieve your objectives faster and yet provides most economical solutions. Simply connect, configure and you are done.

Here too, the perfect interaction of CANopen and IEC 61131 programming ease your work. New process parameters are available as a set of new network variables. Just extend your modular application software by the new functions needed. The new peripherals are configured automatically to make sure your system is in a consistent condition at startup. Access to sysWorxx controls is provided via CAN, RS-232 or Ethernet. This not only enables easy update of your control application, but also delivers insight to your distributed automation system. Comprehensive debugging functionality as well as offline simulators reduces the time of commissioning significantly.

Open Visualization

OLE for Process Control is today's standard interface for connecting automation applications in a most powerful, flexible and user-friendly way. Thereby OPC provides fast and secure access to data and information. As an industry-spanning, multi-vendor software interface, OPC minimizes connection and maintenance overheads. Not only our sysWorxx controls provide OPC access to your process data; additionally an Automation Server enables an easy integration of your automation system into user-applications using the COM-object technology under Windows operating systems. The Automation Server gives you exclusive access to the control and the process data. Also have a look at our powerful stand-alone CANopen OPC Server.
