Serial driver for S7-300/400 PLCs using MPI protocol
By CPKSoft Engineering on 1/18/2010 10:07 PM
We have included a new driver to communicate with Siemens S7-300/400 PLCs using MPI protocol through a serial communication. Now you can create low cost applications where it is required to read and/or write MW registers, among other type of data. You can see more information about this driver here: http://www.cpksoft.com/Drivers/tabid/55/ProductID/125/Default.aspx Or yopu can also download the manual in pdf format here: http://www.cpksoft.com/Files/Manuals/Pdf/XS7MPI.pdf

I cannot register hmitalk.ocx in Windows Vista
By CPKSoft Engineering Support on 3/18/2009 3:31 PM
Some users have reported problems when registering the hmitalk.ocx file under Windows Vista. We have found that the solution to this is running the registration tool as Administrator. For example, if you use VB5 or VB6 to register the ocx (by adding it to the toolbox using the rigth-click menu), make sure to launch the VB exe file with the "Run as Administrator" option. With Visual Basic.Net 2008 Express, we have found that it is not necessary to run it as administrator. We have found problems to register the ocx correctly with regsvr32.exe under Windows Vista, so we recommend that you use VB5, VB6, VB.Net 2008 or the development environment that you are using in order to register the ocx. Recently we have included an utility named RegHMITalk.exe that registers the ocx correctly in your Vista system.

New TriggerAndWait method
By CPKSoft Engineering Support on 10/2/2008 6:46 PM
A new method called TriggerAndWait has been added to the TAS-HMITalk activex. This method triggers a new communication and then blocks the execution of the application thread until the communication has finished. This way it is easier to implement a communication strategy where several TAS-HMITalk objects must be cascaded in a particular order. Following is an example of a routine to handle a button event in an application written in C# with Visual Studio 2005 that reads data from a relay: private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e) { & ...

What is SCADA?
By CPKSoft Engineering on 6/26/2008 3:28 PM
Introduction SCADA or Supervisory Control And Data Acquisition is a large scale control system for automated industrial processes like municipal water supplies, power generation, steel manufacturing, gas and oil pipelines etc. SCADA also has applications in large scale experimental facilities like those used in nuclear fusion. SCADA systems monitor and control these operations by gathering data from sensors at the facility or remote station and then sending it to a central computer system that manages the operations using this information. The SCADA System ... Read More »

Visual Basic and SCADA
By CPKSoft Engineering on 6/19/2008 12:30 PM
Posted by Ed McClure on 15 January, 2007 - 6:10 pm VB is an one option for programming a SCADA or HMI application. Others include "canned" software designed specifically for SCADA and HMI application. Examples of canned packages would be Rockwell Software's RSView and Wonderware. There are pro's and con's to both VB and canned SCADA/HMI packages. VB Pro's: 1. No runtime licenses (cheaper) 2. More flexible Generally with VB you would purchase a third party ActiveX control to facilitate PLC communication. There would be an additional cost for that control, but again once you purchase is (under $1,000) there are no runtime fees for any applications you develop with it. Also, there are many third party graphics packages aimed specifically at the industrial control market. These add-o ... Read More »

MOXA Serial-to-Ethernet NPort 6150 module tested wiith TAS-HMITalk
By CPKSoft Engineering Support on 6/1/2008 6:06 PM
Last week we had the chance to test the Moxa NPort 6150 Secure Serial Port Server Module with TAS-HMITalk to communicate with the serial port of a DanLoad 6000 electronic preset through the ethernet LAN at a fertilizer plant from Petrobras in Campana, Argentina. The Moxa device was provided by RCL Systems, a company specialized in integrating InTouch factory suite applications for oil&gas industries. The loopback tests worked great, showing that TAS-HMITalk could talk to the MOXA module directly, without the need of installing any COM port redirector software. TAS-HMITalk could properly recover from our intentionally-caused communication errors, such as cable disconnections and module power-off and on. The DanLoad 6000 didn ... Read More »
