TELEMECANIQUE DDE Server

The Klinkmann Automation TELEMECANIQUE DDE Server (TELEMEC) is a Microsoft Windows 32-bit application program that acts as a communication protocol Server and allows other Windows application programs to access data from Telemecanique TSX17-20 micro PLC and its I/O extension blocks

Any Microsoft Windows program that is capable of acting as a DDE or FastDDE Client may use the TELEMEC Server.

FEATURES

Connection requires a TSX 17 ACC8 interface cable and a TSX 17 ACC11 connection kit with 9-pin and 25-pin connectors. The data link is established by connecting TSX 17 ACC11 to the 9-pin serial port on the IBM PC and to the 25-pin connector on the TSX 17 ACC8 (RS 485/RS 232 interface). The 15-pin connector of the TSX 17 ACC8 is connected to the PLC programming port.

The TELEMEC Server can communicate with one TSX17-20 micro PLC (with 0...3 I/O extension blocks). The TSX17-20 is a master PLC (with addresses: Station Number equal to FEH, device number equal to 0H) and the IBM PC is a slave (with addresses: Station Number equal to FEH, device number equal to 1H).

Minimizes system message traffic by dynamically calculating and optimizing poll lists for client-requested items/points.

Supports multiple topics for each Converter, allowing different data update rates.

Provides a communication status flag for each topic.

Supports standard DDE among multiple applications.
