Experimental Physics and Industrial Control System
Dear EPICS collaborators,
In the recent few years, there are several OPEN industrial control network
standards been developed. ControlNet is one of them. ControlNet is an open
network for real-time control applications.
The EPICS VME ControlNet interface support is now available on the web at
www.sns.bnl.gov/epics/cnet .
This product is supported by SNS (Spallation Neutron Source www.sns.gov)
project. It will bring the following benefits to our VME EPICS application
developers :
1. A VME IOC is now able to engage a real-time control application via an
open industrial network.
2. A VME IOC is now able to perform peer-to-peer interlocking at 2ms
deterministic updating rate.
3. A VME IOC is now able to remotely scan FLEX IO or AB 1771 IO modules via
ControlNet as an alternative option to VME 6008 RIO.
4. A VME IOC is now able to communicate with AB PLC-5 or ControlLogix 5550
with at least 200 word data block at 2ms update rate.
A talk on this product will be presented at the EPICS collaboration meeting
at Oak Ridge National Laboratory on November 14, 2000
(http://lansce.lanl.gov/lansce8/epics/EpicsCollMeet2000/agenda.htm).
