The Configuration and OPC Server
Software WITH MORE... |
|
| iTools Version 5 features a number of major enhancements, including the ability to create custom user screens (MINI-SCADA screens), configuration "Wizards" to simplify controller configuration, and a graphical wiring editor to configure Eurotherm's advanced Model 3504 and 3508 process controllers. | ||
| iTools Version 5 for Windows® represents the most significant release since its introduction in 1999 as Version 1. This versatile suite of software tools allows configuration, commissioning, cloning and monitoring of all Eurotherm Series 2000 and Series 3000 controllers and also provides runtime monitoring of 5000 Series data acquisition and management recorders. It is capable of editing, storing and 'cloning' complete controller configurations, as well as setting up data logging, process monitoring, Ethernet and modem connections, generating order codes and more. | iTools is Ideal For Auto Detection Clone File Load and Save Configuration Commissioning Cloning Ramp/Soak Visual Editor Modem/Network Support OPC Server ActiveX Controls OEM's Distributors Maintenance Departments |
|
| iTools employs an OPC® (OLE for Process Control) server - EuroMBus - that uses MODBUS® to communicate with Eurotherm or 3rd party instrumentation. The server connects to the controllers via serial communications, Ethernet or a telephone modem, and may also be used by 3rd party 'client' software such as Wonderware® and LabVIEW®. Additionally, a DDE link using iTools OPC Scope allows parameter values to be displayed 'Live' and historical logged data can also be imported to Excel . |

| Key iTools Software Tools |
| iTools features a number of powerful tools, including: | |
View Builder
allows users to create PC-based user screens or mini-SCADA screens
for simple process monitoring, commissioning and diagnostics.

| The iTools Configurator will edit, store and 'clone' complete controller configurations. Clone files can be opened as virtual instruments simulating their actual behaviour and allowing complete configurations to be developed off-line, then downloaded to the controller at a later time. |
|
Configuration Wizards hugely simplify the controller configuration process and guide the user through various features offered. This includes an order code wizard, allowing configuration from an order code. (Models 3116 and 3216) | ![]() |
| The Graphical Wiring Editor allows configuration of the advanced 3500 process controller. The GRAHICAL WIRING EDITOR offers the user a simple DRAG-&-DROP graphical interface to develop advanced control applications. Utilising pre-configured function blocks, users are able to develop the required strategies in minutes, with access to realtime monitoring. The editor can also be used for documentation as the wiring diagram can be printed. | ![]() |
| The Setpoint Program Editor provides a simple method of setting up setpoint profiles and programmable event outputs. It will store, retrieve and download program profiles, working 'on-line', when program values are edited 'live' in a connected controller, or 'off-line', when programs are edited before being downloaded to a selected controller. The number of stored programs is limited only by the capacity of the PC hard disk. | ![]() |
|
OPC Scope is a utility providingtrend plots of process variables. The time axis can be adjusted between 1 min and 1 month, and also provides a Historical Review mode. Data may also be logged to hard disk, from which it may be retrieved and analysed in an Excel spreadsheet. |
| OPC Server - EuroMBus |
| The iTools OPC Server - EuroMBus - automatically interfaces to Eurotherm instrumentation and can be configured to interface to 3rd party instrumentation. Neither the iTools Shell nor ActiveX Controls communicate directly with devices, rather they communicate with EuroMBus which in turn digitally communicates to the devices. In most cases, the iTools OPC Server delivers data to its clients (such as the iTools Shell and ActiveX Controls) using the published OLE for Process Control (OPC) interfaces. This means that the same OPC Server may be used to provide data to third-party applications, in particular SCADA programs. |
| The iTools OPC Server may be used as a general purpose OPC Data Access server, supporting all required features of the OPC Data Access Custom Interface Specifications 1.0 and 2.0. This OPC server is identified by the ProgID 'Eurotherm.ModbusServer.1'. |
| iTools also includes an OPC Automation server, supporting all required features of the OPC Data Access Automation Interface Specification 2.0. This server would typically be used with Microsoft Visual Basic 5.0 or later, and is identified by the ProgID 'Eurotherm.OPCAutomation.1'. |
| A small demo application, developed with Visual Basic 6.0 and using the Automation server, is installed as part of iTools by default. It may be found in the 'examples' sub-folder of the main iTools program folder. |
| iTools Options |
| iTools is available with different options enabled according to the
level of functionality required.
The following options may be specified, in any combination, when obtaining iTools:
|
| Notes: - The Configuration Software option is not charged for. However, it may be disabled by Product Key where it is specifically not required. Whenever the Configuration Software option is specified, all other options (where not ordered) will operate in a demo mode as appropriate. If OPC Scope trending and logging has not been specified, the OPC Scope program will still be available as a simple OPC client offering live textual displays. |
