The ECU device is the new Hydreco CANopen controller with the
latest generation electronics, conceived for mobile application. It is
available as master or slave unit, ensuring flexibility and modularity
to the control system adding the network all the necessary I/O
resources and expansions to fit all the needed functions by
machine manufacturers.
The ECU master controller is programmable through the common
PLC programming languages used in industrial automation, so it
offers the opportunity to readapt and reuse the source code
already created in Ladder, ST, IL, SFC, Function Block.
IEC61131-3 LogicLab software environment is the tool used for
programming, debugging, simulation, setting and modifying
parameters, downloading the application on the unit, updating
firmware and connecting the ECU for “real time” monitoring during
field tests
The controller parameters setting is operated through laptop in
LogicLab environment, via USB cable with and a four ways M12
male connector installed on the back of the controller.
