Support Software
The following V-series related software is available which supports V-series life cycle from system design, degugging, system testing, through operation and maintenance.
SynchroTrend --- V-Tool2 add-in software
The SynchroTrend is an optional software which can be added in the V-series Engineering Tool Ver.2 (V-Tool2). The SynchroTrend can gather the specified user data from V-series cotrollers and save into a file histrically. The data gathering is synchronized with the controller's tasks (SS/HS/MS). Real-time trend graph display is available as well as saved data display. The SynchroTrend supports the testing and commissioning of large systyems effectively.
- Applicable controller: S3PU55B Ver.2.70 or higher
- Applicable Engineering Tool: Ver.2.6.0 or higher
New Instrument FB Library --- V-Tool2 add-in software
The New Instrument FB Library is a collection of the function blocks that perform loop controls and sequence operations, which appear frequently in process control applications. By adding this library to the V-series Engineering Tool Ver.2 (V-Tool2), the programming for process control becomes high productivity and reliable.
The New Instrument FB Library has the following features.
- 1. Higher productivity
- 2. High-speed processing
- 3. Flexible expandability
- 4. Reliable code
[Applicable controller]
- DS-type: L3PU21 Ver.1.1B or more / L2PU22 Ver.1.18 or higher
- MCS-type: L1PU11H/12H/LC511/512 Ver.2.23 or more / LC521/522 Ver.2.30 or higher
[Applicable Engineering Tool]
- Ver.2.6.1 or higher
Permissive Fault Diagnosis --- V-Tool2 add-in software
The Permissive Fault Diagnosis is an optional software which can be added in the V-series Engineering Tool Ver.2 (V-Tool2). The Permissive Fault Diagnosis analizes the permissive condition (inter-lock circuit) written by LD, and displays the cause signal at the permissive break.
For example, when an auto-run condition is configured by AND/OR logic of many input signals;
- 1. Why auto-run condition is not satisfied ? --- Displays only the cause contacts
- 2. Auto-run has been broken. Which is the first fault ? --- Displays the first fault signal
Even if the permissive condition is configured by cascade connection of LD networks, this Permissive Fault Diagnosis can track back the networks and show the diagnostic result as a simple LD network. The Permissive Fault Diagnosis package can make effecitive in system commissioning and troubleshooting.
- Applicable controller: S3PU55A/55B Ver.2.76 or higher
- Applicable controller: S3PU65A Ver.3.78 or higher
- Applicable Engineering Tool 2: Ver.2.12.0 or higher
- Applicable Engineering Tool 3: Ver.3.6.0 or higher
Remote Engineering Package --- Independent package software
The Remote Engineering Package can provide remote maintenance environment through Internet. By using the technology of HTTP tunneling and Windows® Remote Desktop, it provides a secure remote maintenance environment without changing the network security policy at the user site.
Main Feature
- System integrators can make remote maintenance network worldwide
- Only Internet connection is required (Port 80 and 443 are used)
- There is no need to change the firewall
- Data is encrypted using AES encryption
- Initial cost and running cost are reasonable

V-Simulator --- Independent package software
The V-Simulator is a software which emulates S3/S2/L3DS controller operation on a PC. Without using actual controller hardawre, you can test/debug the application program. Therefore it contributes to shorten the application program development and to improve the quality.
Main Features
- Emulates S3/S2/L3DS operation on a PC. It is the same operation from the V-Tool2/V-Tool3 including execution monitor, data set, etc. (some instructions are not supported)
- The Windows® API is prepared to access I/O variables. I/O simulation can be available by linking an external application software.
- V-Simulator supports LAN functionality. The HMI/SCADA can be connected with V-Simulator through network (Ethernet). The communication test can be done.
- Two types of connection between V-Simulator and V-Tool2/V-Tool3. (1)Stand-alone type which contain both, and (2)Network type using two or more PCs.
