The SST ControlNet interface card
connects your PCI bus computer to ControlNet.
Applications
Many third party software programs support the SST
ControlNet interface card for various applications
including:
- Operator Interface/MMI/SCADA
PC Control
- Network Configuration, Troubleshooting and
Diagnostics
- PLC Programming
Features
- 32-bit i960 RISC CPU
- Simultaneous operation of 128 scheduled and 128
unscheduled connections
- Simultaneous functionality of ControlNet
messaging, scanner and adapter
- Designed to work with any existing SST 5136-SD
DH+ software drivers
- Works with Rockwell Software RSLinx
- Integrated configuration tool
Available with SST
ControlNet PCI Card:
- ControlNet Network Capture Tool
- ControlNet Configuration Tool
- ControlNet Network Analyzer
- Microsoft Windows NT drivers/DLLs
- Rockwell Software RSLinx Support
- Common Driver Architecture (CDA)
- OPC Server
- Global Technical Support, 24 hours, 7 days
- Example code and open memory map
interface for custom driver dev.
CustomDriver Development
SST offers two options for supporting the
ControlNet interface card: SST Common Driver
Architecture (CDA) or Memory Mapped Access.
The SST CDA significantly reduces software
driver development time without compromising
any of SST hardware specific features. The
CDA supports SST ControlNet, DeviceNet, Modicon
and Profibus interface cards. Memory Mapped
Access is also available. SST provides an
open documented memory map interface with
example C source code and Windows 32-Bit DLLs
and drivers.
