MicroControl training courses

This pioneering controller goes far beyond the functionality of conventional PLC controllers. As an all in one IoT gateway, CANopen automation controller and top-hat rail PC, the µMIC.200 offers an end-to-end solution.

I/O modules are a fundamental component in industrial automation. They act as an interface between the control unit and the operational devices of the production line, facilitating precise control of complex processes. Our products have a CAN interface, so we support the CANopen, CANopen FD and J1939 protocols

CANopen has been developed by the members of the international user and producer assosiation CAN in Automation (CiA). The CANopen application layer defines different communication services and protocols (e.g. process and service data) as well as a network management. CANopen is mainly used as an embedded network in machinery, but also as a general industrial communications system. It is based on the international standards ISO 11898-1 (CAN protocol) and ISO 11898-2 (fast physical layer). The CANopen application layer has been standardized by the CENELEC and is defined in the European standard EN 50325-4.

Linux is an open operating system. The term “Linux” actually refers to the Kernel of a unix-related operating systemes (derivative). The term is often used as a synonym for the complete operating system (distribution). Further to the programmes necessary in an operating system, e.g. for file and user management, additional graphic frontends, office applications, multi media tools, databases, web browsers and other programmes are covered. Linux is freely available, i.e. the sources are open and the systems may easily be adapted to the individual application. Linux is freely copiable and there are no software license fees and, in addition, it is non-proprietary.
