● PX Open MONITOR lets you debug PX Open programs.
● TX Open tool lets you configure and commission TX Open modules.
● BIM tool lets you:
– Commission TX-I/O modules and the Bus Interface Modules (BIM)
– Simulate programs without I/O modules on the test rack
– Configure the colors of the I/O status LED on the TX-I/O modules
● Desigo Automation Level Migration Tool lets you copy engineering parameters, such as I/O addresses,
texts, data point parameters, PID controller parameters and trend objects, of a Visonik controller to a
PX automation station.
● Desigo Point Test (DPT) lets you test data points for field devices and PX automation stations during
commissioning.
Preloaded applications
Some automation stations contain preloaded applications, but are also freely programmable. A
comprehensive library of proven, standardized applications is available and can be used instead of the
preloaded applications.
XWP to PXC communication
XWP communicates with the PX automation station via BACnet/IP or BACnet/LonTalk. The CFC or
Parameter Editor can communicate online with the PX automation stations. This is a useful aid both for
commissioning and testing the automation stations, and for operation and monitoring. The pin values and
some attributes of the compounds and blocks can be modified online.
To commission a Lon-based PX automation station, XWP must be connected to the same LonWorks
network as the automation station. The program or program changes can be downloaded via BACnet router
or PTP connection, which can also be used for monitoring and operation. The functionality to configure and
commission the BACnet router is integrated in the XWP Network Configurator.
