Introduction
I/O drawing generator
Save hours of painstaking effort with ProWORX
™
32’s I/O Drawing Generator, that
automatically creates wiring diagrams for the I/O cards dened in the Trafc Cop.
Generate necessary drawings all at once, or just one card at a time. Simply select an
address the I/O card uses with the Network Editor, then click the drawing button on
the Hardware Back Referencing panel to display the diagram. If desired, save it as
an AUTOCAD-compatible .DXF le or print it.
Network editor
With the Network Editor, ProWORX 32 reduces development time by using the same
commands and instructions for every controller. Simply cut, copy, and paste
networks from one platform to any other.
Program documentation
ProWORX is rst-class software with high-quality program documentation. Use one
of the many standard templates to get started, and progress to assemble your own
custom documentation. For better references and easier-to-use documentation, we
have provided annotation down to the “Bit” level to allow longer comments and more
lines of text. Even simple things like using Windows O/S fonts to help eliminate
printer issues demonstrates that every detail has been considered.
Realtime network status
Find the controller you need quickly and simplify network diagnostics with ProWORX
32’s powerful Network Scan feature. Network Scan searches your Modbus or
Modbus Plus networks, then identies and graphically displays each device found –
and shows its status.
Advanced I/O management
Ensure that the l/O card you are conguring in the software matches the one on your
plant oor with ProWORX 32’s graphical Trafc Cop. It displays I/O cards on your
screen the same way they look in real life, which helps eliminate confusion. To place
a card, just select it from the convenient drop down menu and then drag it into the
controller slot you want. To save even more time, the Trafc Cop automatically
associates the card’s I/O points with a block of free addresses in your controller.
Once congured, manage your I/O with Pro WORX 32’s complete documentation
tools, with references for each head, drop, rack, slot and address. And, the Trafc
Cop’s graphical display shows you at-a-glance that your I/O is healthy.
