Software

Structure and Function

Software tools allow a comfortable programming and parameterization of VIPA systems and other automation concepts. These software tools are included on the tool demo CD (SW900T0LA) as activatable full versions.

OPC-Server

The OPC-Server provides the standard interface for accessing data from OPC clients to PLC systems from different manufacturers. The OPC-Server supports TCP/IP networks via standard network cards as well as MPI networks that have one or more COM ports, an MPI-serial converter and/or are connected via VIPA MPI-USB adapter.

Programming Software

WinPLC7 is a programming system for Systems 100V up to 500S as well as for the Siemens controllers S7-300 and S7-400.

Parameterization Software

Different parameterization tools are available to users:

TD-Wizard: Parameterization tool for VIPA TD 03

WinNCS: PROFIBUS-DP and Ethernet- parameterization/configuration by VIPA controllers and communication processors

WinCoCT: Configuration of CANopen networks with VIPA System

OP-Manager: Parameterization tool for VIPA OP 03 and CC 03
