Advantys STB
Distributed I/O Solution 1
Configuration Software
For applications requiring short response times (< 3 ms), the Advantys Configuration
Software allows you to create reflex functions that work directly on the island output
modules, thereby freeing the bus master from parsing and process them. These
reflex functions can be associated with “priority” I/O modules to ensure the reliability
of the response time.
An Advantys STB island can call up to 10 reflex functions. These functions are
created from blocks whose inputs are activated by the digital or analog input
channels and whose results activate an analog or digital output channel. You can
nest two reflex functions.
Various types of function blocks are available:
The multilingual Advantys Configuration Software is compatible with the following
operating systems: Windows 98 (second edition SE), Windows NT 4.0 (service
pack
u 6), Windows 2000 (service pack u 1) and Windows XP.
It includes online help and is provided with a STB XCA 4002 cable to connect the
NIM to the PC (length: 2 m).
