straton drives Profinet performance
PROFINET IO RT Controller for straton available.
The straton IEC 61131-3 standard Soft PLC now supports the Profinet standard for real time communications over Ethernet hardware.
An advantage of Profinet is that it uses standard CAT5 cables and connectors, compared to the expensive connectors and termination required by Profibus. Using the Soft PLC straton from COPA-DATA, control engineers can reduce system costs further by replacing dedicated fieldbus hardware with a “soft” Profinet server, without any loss of performance.![]()
zenon documents HMI/SCADA projects with 1 click
Even the smallest project requires documentation, whether it is simply a book explaining the symbols in the HMI/SCADA project (inputs and outputs, colour coding, etc) or a full, picture by picture definition of all symbols and variables. It can take system integrators weeks to document a typical HMI/SCADA system.
This represents significant engineering cost and short cuts can result in a lack of proper documentation which leads to future problems.
