Chapter 2 The AADvance Safety Controller
• providing for the consistency of data
• providing a means for synchronous operation between devices
• eliminating the need to have separate synchronous schemes
• easing the development and maintenance of robust systems
The AADvance Workbench software and AADvance-Trusted SIS Workstation
software are software development environments for a controller. Use the
AADvance Workbench software or AADvance-Trusted SIS Workstation
software to create local and distributed control applications using the
languages of IEC 61131-3.
Engineers can use one language or a combination that best suits their
knowledge and programming style and the type of application.
The AADvance Workbench software or AADvance-Trusted SIS Workstation
software is a secure development environment. There is also a Program Enable
key that must be plugged into the processor base unit to allow the user to
modify and download the application or access the AADvance Discover tool to
set or change the controller IP address. The Program Enable Key when it is
removed protects the application from unauthorized access.
The development environment includes:
• tools for program development
• program documentation
• function block library management
• application archiving
• import/export utilities
• on-line monitoring
• off-line simulation and controlled on-line changes
• Programs can be simulated and tested on the computer before
downloading to the controller hardware.
Operating Systems
For information about supported operating systems and other software
