The concept of nxtControl is a clever cocktail of different norms and de facto standards. The individual technologies interact forming a unified whole. For the user it is a unique piece of engineering software with which he can implement and manage his projects.
Control engineering, visualisation (HMI / SCADA), process connection and documentation are planned with one and the same engineering tool.
The most important concept components:
- IEC 61499 for distributed control systems
- Object orientation for automation components
- Hardware abstraction and virtual hardware
- Single line engineering
Advantages:
- Efficient engineering
- Independence of suppliers / Hardware
- Modularity for plants and machines
- Data consistency and integrity from the process level to the ERP system
- For proprietary & standard hardware
- Fast commissioning & maintenance
- Overcoming complexity
