Sercos Conformizer for slave device pre-tests
Sercos
Sercos III Slave Conformizer
The Sercos III Slave Conformizer is a test tool for slave devices on the Sercos III Ethernet-based automation bus.
The company said the tool ensures that Sercos III slave implementations from different manufacturers are compatible and interoperable.
The certification test software is available to manufacturers who want to pre-test Sercos III slave devices in their facilities prior to the formal testing at the Sercos test lab.
The company claimed this provides a high assurance of passing the formal test at minimal time and costs.
The Sercos III Conformizer is provided as a complete test and development environment for Sercos III slave devices.
It includes an active PCI-Sercos III interface card and test software, which runs under Windows XP without the need for real-time extensions.
The Conformizer is said to be an easy-to-use package with a GUI based on the Eclipse framework.
Tests activated by the GUI are specified using the Ruby script language.
Pre-defined scripts are available for testing the communication, the generic device profile and the function-specific profiles for drives and I/Os.
Product- and vendor-specific scripts can be easily integrated, according to Sercos.
