a quick overview of the project structure with the interaction between the individual modules clearly visible. So, service technicians can diagnose the system quickly and easily. create individual evaluations without worrying about proprietary data formats and protocols. SIGMATEK also provides a complexity of the program is encapsulated in the graphic representation of the program components. This means, the program code is not visible at the first glance. The relationship of the program components to one another is shown, as well as the most important component data. This gives the developer

Clearness through Graphic Representation LASAL Supports All Target Platforms

CPU base load is significantly optimized in comparison to conventional systems.

Client-Server Technology

The communication between the program com- ponents is made possible through the clients and servers of a component. The client is the active part of the communication and the server reacts to requests of the clients. Using this technique, an event-triggered system can be implemented: A program component will then work only when it is addressed (when a value is set in the visualization project for example). The DLL for online com-munication , enabling access to control data from Windows programs. Platforms can also be changed at any time LASAL can be used with all platforms. The entire spectrum of SIGMATEK products, such as CPUs, terminals and industrial PCs are supported. without having to adapt the software .

Open Data Interface

For individual data exchange with external programs, an OPC server (OLE for Process control) with a standard interface is available. The server supports write/read access on the respective data server. The user can then link, for example, process data to a visualization project, control system or an Excel file and The
