6.2 Operation with software/remote maintenance
functionality
6.2.1 General information
The software for the electronic processor consists of two
programs:
1. Gateway
Gateway monitors the COM port and incoming requests from
the internet and releases the connection to the FPS controller.
The signals coming from the electronic processor at the COM
port are converted by the gateway into the TCP/IP protocol.
The connection to the FPS controller is established via port
5000 – 5002.
2. FPS-Controller
FPS-Controller visualizes the connected FPS-F5 electronic
processor.
Attention: The "FPS-Controller" software is only compatible
with Windows XP or older versions.
Both programs are controlled via an initialization
file, }6.2.2 [/24].
NOTE
If there are connection problems, contact SCHUNK Service.
6.2.2 Initialization file
The initialization file contains a range of information that
influences the program start. The file is read once when the
program is started. Most entries are written and saved while the
program is running.
Please contact SCHUNK Service if there are any issues.
