PC Condition Monitoring Kontron’s competences in Software

Recognize malfunctions ... ... before they happenThis is achieved by:

With the

PCCM software

the system can be monitored and vital system information are collectedto get early warning of an upcoming fail. By monitoring critical system parameters components can be replaced before the system crashes due to component fail. The service technician will have infor-mation what component reached a critical status so he can have required spare part with him for fast repair. As a result maintenance-cycles can be optimized and MTTR value (mean time to repair) can be reduced. Temperature monitoring Fan speed monitoring Hard drive monitoring with S.M.A.R.T. KISS Stor Raid status Monitoring of the supply voltages Individual expandability through plug-in interfaces In the event of malfunction, notifi- cation of the user/administrator (acoustic, optical, by e-mail or SMS, etc.) Besides customer and project specific SW devel-opment and services, Kontron offers a wide range of board and system support SW packages for the main embedded, real time and desktop operating systems. For industrial applications we provide OPC servers, OPC clients and OPC tools.Kontron is a leading authority in integrating embedded technologies (hardware and software), with indepth experience and knowledge of em-bedded operating systems that encompasses sys- tem software, board support packages, device drivers and integration into the IDE (integrated development environment). We have experience of low level programming on major microcontroller and processor families. The close concurrent engineering of software and hardware designers, and excellent relation-ship to partners like Intel®, Freescale, Microsoft, Tenasys and WindRiver, let us develop systems that ideally fit together in terms of hardware and software. Especially the new Multi Core processors, which are on even every Kontron Hardware platform, include a great change in realizing OS solutions. One core works for visualization under Windows and the other core is reserved for a real-time OS.
