Development Tool

Modbus/TCP OPC Server

OPC is a common data exchange tool worldwide. Almost all hardware and software venders support this standard. Modbus/TCP OPC servers are designed for connecting Modbus devices via the Ethernet. It acquires data from the ADAM-5000/TCP, then links with the OPC client from HMI. In this way, HMI software packages can be used and easily integrated with ADAM Ethernet solutions.

ActiveX Controls

Advantech offers an easy-to-use integration tool, Modbus/TCP ActiveX Controls for ADAM-6000 I/O data access. This can be used for users to develop applications with VB, VC, and other Windows development kits. (Note: The UDP function isn't fully supported in the existing version.)

DLL Driver

Advantech also offers another easy-to-use integration tool, the ADAM-5000/TCP DLL driver, for users to develop their own applications with VB, VC, BCB, Delphi, and other Windows development kits.

Customizeable Web Page

Since the ADAM-6000 modules have a built-in web server with a default web page, users can monitor and control the I/O status everywhere, through any web browser that supports Java applets. The ADAM-6000 modules data can also be downloaded to a user-defined web page for custom applications. Advantech has provided sample JAVA applets to use as a reference if you want to design your own operator interfaces. These interfaces can be downloaded into ADAM-6000 modules via Windows Utility.

To create an applet web page for ADAM-6000 modules is quick and easy. The following steps show a simple method to configure your own web page in short time.
