ADAM-6000 Series
Software Support
Based on the Modbus/TCP standard, the ADAM-6000 firmware has a built-in Modbus/TCP server. Advantech provides the necessary DLL drivers, OPC Server, and Windows Utility for the ADAM-6000. You can configure this DA&C system via Windows Utility and integrate it with a HMI software package via Modbus/TCP driver or Modbus/TCP OPC Server. Furthermore, you can use the DLL driver to develop your own applications.
Windows Utility
For system configuration, Windows utility offers a friendly operating environment to calibrate I/O modules, monitor current data, set IP addresses etc. As you execute this program, it will automatically search each ADAM-6000 device on the network. There are also some advanced functions, such as the scaling function, which helps users convert various field signals to engineering units, and a latch output function, which forces data or status to create system simulations.
Browser-based on-line Monitoring
Each ADAM-6000 module features an embedded HTTP server for remote monitoring and diagnostics. The ADAM-6000 also pre-builds a default html page in each module for online support for monitoring analog input/output, digital input/output, alarm/event, counter, or real-time values, all done remotely via the Intranet/Internet. Just enter the IP address of the ADAM-6000 module in any standard browser, and you can get dynamic, real-time values of ADAM-6000 I/O modules immediately, without any required programming.
