Integrated Class A ethercat Master Stack including timer synchronization and diagnosis
EC-Win provides a professional open real-time EtherCAT platform for Windows systems. Thus it is possible to create extremly fast, deterministic real-time solutions that are based on the more and more popular EtherCAT technology. Typical applications are motion controllers, PLC controllers or real-time measurement applications with cycle times up to 20 kHz. Core component of EC-Win ist the powerful EC-Master Stack which was specifically optimized to match with the proven and realiable acontis Windows Hypervisor and real-time technology, respectively.
Customers get a perfectly matching, powerful real-time ethercat programming environment; a one-stop, single-source solution with an attractive price.
Typically, multicore systems will be used as hardware platform. Windows then runs on separate CPU cores as the EtherCAT master and real-time application run. Fast and optimized drivers for Intel and Realtek network controllers ensure highest possible performance. Also integrated into the EC-Win hypervisor platform is the option to synchronize EtherCAT slaves with the real-time application; the local PC timer will run synchronously with the EtherCAT slaves that are using Distributed Clocks. EC-Win is complemented with the EC-Lyser diagnosis and monitoring tool.
Microsoft Visual Studio is used as integrated development and debug environment for both, the Windows part as well as the real-time/EtherCAT part of the application.
Using EC-Win customers get a means to avoid costly plug-in cards as well as separate hypervisors or Windows real-time extensions.
The EC-Win System Manager
One stop configuration tool for EC-Win
Assign EtherCAT compatible hardware to the real-time environment
Optionally assign additional hardware to the real-time environment
GUI based CPU assignment and memory configuration for Windows and the real-time environment
Integrated hypervisor: Windows and the real-time part (operating system) are safely separated. Protection against Windows system failure (blue screen).
Using the Win32 programming paradigma for the real-time part (preemptive multitasking, threads, events, semaphores, mutexes, ...).
Fast high resolution system timer (resolution below 10 nanoseconds). Interrupt frequencies up to 25 kHz can be achieved.
Using multiple CPU cores for both, Windows and/or the real-time part is possible (SMP: symmetric multiprocessing). This is especially important for quad core CPUs etc.
Virtual TCP/IP network between Windows and the real-time part. Thus the full functionality of the EtherCAT diagnosis features can be used.
Comfortable development and debugging environment using Microsoft Visual Studio. Remote debugging via Ethernet is possible.
Fast and optimized drivers for Intel and Realtek network controllers. These drivers don t require interrupts which on one side provides excellent real-time behavior and on the 其他 side smoothly integrates into the Windows/real-time environment.
Standard mailbox protocols: CoE - canopen over EtherCAT, SoE - Servo Profile over EtherCAT, AoE - ADS over EtherCAT, VoE - Vendor over EtherCAT.
Distributed clocks with propagation delay measurement and compensation, synchronization of the local real-time timer and EtherCAT Distributed Clocks reference clock, continous drift compensation. This feature is important for many EtherCAT motion applications.
Slave to slave communication via master.
Bus scan with topology detection, analysis and verification.
EEPROM programming (read and write).
Comprehensive and proven diagnosis.
Integrated EC-Master feature pack "Remote Access Server". Using the virtual network 连接ion a simple remote access to the EC-Master stack is provided.
Option: more EC-Master Stack Feature Packs are provided for an attractive price.
ethercat Master Diagnosis
EC-Lyser: Graphical application which was developed to analyse EtherCAT field bus systems that are controlled by the acontis EC-Master Stack.
Option: ET9000 plug-in for direct communication via TCP/IP with the EtherCAT master stack (ET9000 online functions can be used).
Option: Remote Access from Windows via TCP/IP (virtual network) for sophisticated diagnosis in conjunction with the EC-Master Object Dictionary.
