The SST ControlNet interface card
connects your VME bus computer to ControlNet.
Applications
- Scan ControlNet I/O
- Exchange data with other PLCs and devices over
- ControlNet
Embedded PLCs / Computers
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抯 RSLinx
- Integrated configuration tool
Available with SST
ControlNet VME Card:
- ControlNet Configuration Tool
- Common Driver Architecture (CDA)
- 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.
