3 ADAM-5560 Series User Manual
Chapter 1 Overview
Designed for control tasks that meet robust and computing performance
requirements of PLC and Industrial PC’s
ADAM-5560 Series Controller is designed for control tasks which need Industrial
PC’s computing performance and PLC’s robustness. Its multiple functionalities
include discrete, analog and motion functions. The well-integrated programming tool
and optional HMI software provide a flexible and easy-to-use software solution for
versatile applications.
Built-in VGA port
ADAM-5560 Series Controller has a built-in VGA port which can directly connect to a
display. So HMI function can be integrated into this controller. ADAM-5560 Series
Controller can be operated with or without display and/or keyboard/mouse which can
meet different requirements of applications.
Support atorage function by battery backup rAM and SD card I/O module
ADAM-5560 Series Controller has built-in 1GB DDR2 SDRAM with 1MB battery
backup RAM for saving important data. The ADAM-5030 I/O Module supports two
SD cards and two USB ports. So users can use SD cards or USB sticks for large
amount of data storage requirement.
Built-in real-time clock and watchdog timer
The ADAM-5560 Series Controller also includes a real-time clock and watchdog
timer. The real-time clock records events while they occur. The watchdog timer is
designed to automatically reset the microprocessor if the system fails. ADAM-5560
Series Controller provides two types of watchdog timers. They are Operating System
Watchdog and KW application watchdog. It will increase the reliability of system and
make the ADAM-5560 Series Controller ideal for use in applications which require
high system stability.
SoftLogic Support in Windows CE 5.0
ADAM-5560KW Controller supports IEC-61131-3 programming in WinCE 5.0. The
five programming languages of Ladder Diagram, Function Block, Sequential Func-
tion Chart, Structured Text and Instruction List cover most of the PLC programming
languages in the market. The reliable PROCONOS runtime engine and powerful
MULTIPROG software from KW-Software empower ADAM-5560KW Controller as
the best solution of Programmable Automation Controller.
Process IEC 61131-3 standard with rich development environment
The standard IEC 61131-3 has been established to standardize the multiple lan-
guages, sets of instructions and different concepts existing in the field of automation
systems. The great variety of control concepts has led to an incompatibility between
the different control platforms and manufacturers. The result was a great effort to be
made for training, hardware and software investments.
IEC 61131-3 defines the syntax of 5 programming languages, defines a certain repre-
sentation and describes the different elements which can be used in the language.
The programming languages can be differentiated by the physical appearance into 2
textual languages and 3 graphical languages.
