API-CAP(W32) is the function library for controlling different categories of device modules (analog, digital, counter, etc.) connected to I/O Controller Unit CPU-CAxx(FIT)GY and of N Seriese of CONTEC F&eIT series by proper API functions for each category.
By using API-CAP(W32) and supported plentiful program developing languages (such as VisualBasic.NET, Visual C#, VisualC++, etc.), the I/O controller Unit on network can be accessed easily without realizing they are on network.
API-CAP(W32) is the product for remote device accessing with F&eIT protocol. The F&eIT protocol itself for accessing I/O controller Unit of F&eIT series until now is not changed. So there is no affect to the finished applications used FIT.DLL or REMOTEIO.DLL.
Characters
- By proper API of each category, it is possible to program without caring network or protocol.
- It is the API functions group for accessing device modules with name, so the powerful application for adding device or changing layout of device composition can be made.
- The virtual address map of F&eIT protocol is hidden completely by accessing logical port or logical channel, so when new device module or replacement is used, the change of program is controlled to minimum. (* Attention)
* Attention: The change of program is necessary when new device have functions not being supported before.
- Plentiful program languages are supported.
- It is possible to confirm the action without programming by Diagnosis Monitor.
