ADAM-5550KW
PAC Features
ADAM-5550KW is designed for control tasks which need Industrial PC’s computing
performance and PLC’s robustness. Its multiple functionalities include descrete, analog and
motion functions. The well-integrated programming tool and optional HMI software provide
a flexible and easy-to-use software solution for versatile applications. ADAM-5550KW
supports Modbus protocol which allows data exchange with various Modbus devices.
SoftLogic Support in CE 5.0
ADAM-5550KW supports IEC-61131-3 programming in WinCE 5.0. The five programming
languages of Ladder Diagram, Function Block, Sequential Function Chart, Structured Text
and Instruction List cover most of the PLC programming languages in the market. The
reliable ProConOS runtime engine and powerful MULTIPROG software from KW-Software
empower ADAM-5550KW as the best solution of Programmable Automation Controller.
Visualization
ADAM-5550KW has a built-in VGA port which can directly connect to a display. So
HMI function can be integrated into this controller. ADAM-5550KW can be operated
with or without display/keyboard/mouse which can meet different requirements of
applications.
Widely Used IT Technology
ADAM-5550KW supports widely used IT technology of industrial PC. For remote
monitoring function, the built-in web server can provide local I/O status for internet access
and email alarm function can send alarm message to dedicated email addresses when there
is any alarm occurs. For remote maintanance function, the buit-in FTP server provides
service for uploading application program or downloading data logging files.
Dual Ethernet Ports
ADAM-5550KW provides two ethernet ports for different application requirements such
as redundant ethernet connetion for reliability concern or separated network connections
for security concern. Both of the functions are possible to be implemented by customer’s
application program.
Deterministic I/O
ADAM-5550KW can guarantee deterministic I/O at 1 ms. This feature guarantees control
and response speed at I/O level so HMI software or operations of other application
programs cannot affect the I/O control performance.

Remote I/O Expansibility
ADAM-5550KW supports not only Modbus/RTU Master function via serial ports, but
also the Modbus/TCP Client to retrieve data from remote I/O, and Modbus/TCP Server
to exchange data with other Modbus devices via Ethernet port. This Modbus feature is
very useful when the control system needs expand the remote I/O modules or connect
to other controllers.
Rich Support to ADAM-5000 I/O Modules
Most of the ADAM-5000 I/O modules are supported by ADAM-5550KW including analog
I/O modules, digital I/O modules, and motion control module. All the operations of
supported modules are the same with the operations of ADAM-5510KW series.
AMONet Motion Control Modules
AMONet Module supports two RS-485 master ports, and transfers data between host and
slaves directly without any operations in between. Each port of the master can control up
to 2048 I/O points, 64 axes, or a combination of I/O points and axes for motion control.
The master ports support up to 20 Mbps transfer rate and a maximum communication
distance of up to 100 meters. The communication between master and slave is based
on a customized RS-485 solution that saves wires, covers a long distance, supports
high-speed communication and has time-deterministic features. Various functions can
be chosen on the slave modules, and standard industrial DIN rail mounting design makes
it easy to distribute them in the field.
Motion Control Modules
ADAM-5550KW supports two types of motion control modules. One is a stepping/pulse-
type servo motor control module, designed for general-purpose applications, and the other
is the cost-effective intelligent stepping motor control module. The servo motor control
module’s intelligent NOVAR MCX314-motion ASIC comes built-in with a variety of motion
control functions, such as 2/3-axis linear interpolation, 2-axis circular interpolation, T/S-
curve acceleration/deceleration rate and more. It performs these motion control functions
without processor loading during driving. The intelligent stepping motor control module’s
PCD-4541 motion controller can execute a variety of motion-control commands. Each
axis can be controlled directly through the card’s I/O registers.
