OI Touchscreens PLCs Automation Software Power Supplies Sensors Communication Barriers WindSRV Automation Software WindSRV Software OPC Server for IDEC PLCs Key Features • On-line full time • Support MicroSmart Pentra 32-bit and floating point • Support Ethernet and modem communications • Built-in Quick Client interface Part Number Description A True Plug-and-Play OPC Server Single device connection. One PLC can be connected to WINDSRV-1 Looking for a fast and flawless controls solution? Want your control systems centralized, the server. easy-to-manage and able to take advantage of all the components you already have? Four device connections. Up to 4 PLCs can be connected WINDSRV-4 WindSRV, also known as KEPServerEX, is an OPC server that provides direct connectivity to the server. between client applications and IDEC PLCs. It’s a true plug-and-play OPC Server with Unlimited device connections. Up to 100 PLCs can be WINDSRV-U effortless data management, acquisition, monitoring and control. connected to the server. Use Microsoft Excel Using Microsoft Excel as Client Applications Using Microsoft Excel, available on most PCs, customers can create a visual central monitoring station quickly and effectively. System status such as sensor inputs, motor outputs, etc. can be monitored and controlled. It’s a cost-effective, real-time central monitoring system that can be customized to your needs. With just KEP- ServerEX server and Excel, up to 100 PLCs can be monitored and controlled in real time. Sample application using Microsoft Excel Input and output status such as switches, sensors, flow meters, E-stops, motors, etc. can be monitored in real time. Output devices such as motors and valves, can be controlled with just a single click. Using the graph feature in Excel, users can create a custom presentation to monitor water tank levels or production counts. And that isn’t all, there is so much more you can do and create using Excel. 800-262-IDEC (4332) • USA & Canada 135 WindSRV Automation Software Quick Client Easy to use and setup Once tags or tag groups are created in your project, click on the Quick Client icon to start monitoring these parameters. Quick Client is a quick way to determine if the server is connected to the PLCs. Auto Demotion It’s as simple as 1-2-3 This device allows a driver to temporarily place a KEPServerEX is designed to allow quick and easy configuration KEPServerEX device off-line in the event that a physical of your communications. device is not responding. By placing a non-responsive device off-line, the driver can continue to optimize communication with the device. Define Channel Object 1 Define Device Object Tag Creation and Management 2 Tag Grouping, Drag and Drop editing and CSV Import/Export are basic features to make it easier for you to organize your Tag Object next project. Another feature that you will find useful is Automatic Tag Database Generation. KEPServerEX supports 3 automatic regeneration of tags for select communication drivers. Drivers that support this feature can either read tag information directly from a device or generate tags from stored tag data. You no longer need to enter OPC tags into the Step 1 server. Select a driver Each protocol or driver used in the KEPServerEX server and project is referred to as a channel. Channels are specific communication drivers such as RS232C, Ethernet or Dial-up On-Line Full-time modems. A project can consist of many channels. KEPServerEX is on-line all the time, allowing your application to be modified while the server is communicating with client applications. Almost all parameters can be changed while Step 2 the server is running, including com port and baud rate configuration, along with tag editing and additions. Specify the device Configure the PLC you want to communicate with the server. KEPServerEX supports MicroSmart Pentra, MicroSmart, OpenNet controllers and even older FA and Micro3 series. Supports MicroSmart Pentra 32-bit registers and floating point data Step 3 KEPServerEX version 5 now supports MicroSmart Pentra Create tags complete addressing, including 32-bit data and floating point data. A tag is memory allocation in the PLC. You can monitor input, outputs, internal relays and data registers. You can also create a Tag Group that allows you to monitor each set of PLC parameters such as I/O status, alarm conditions, etc. www.IDEC.com 136 Barriers Communication Sensors Power Supplies Automation Software PLCs OI Touchscreens OI Touchscreens PLCs Automation Software Power Supplies Sensors Communication Barriers WindSRV Automation Software Quick Client Easy to use and setup Once tags or tag groups are created in your project, click on the Quick Client icon to start monitoring these parameters.
