The EC-Engineer serves as a powerful EtherCAT configuration and diagnosis tool, which also can be integrated into customer's application.
Hypervisor: RT-Linux + Windows
Using the LxWin Hypervisor it is possible to run Windows and a hard real-time Linux in parallel. Plenty of Linux drivers, e.g. for fieldbus controllers or GigE camera systems, communication stacks (EtherCAT, Profinet, OPC, OPC UA, TSN, ...) or complex software solutions like CNC controller or software PLCs can be used without any change under LxWin.
Customers looking for a Windows real-time extension also get great benefit from using LxWin. The hard real-time performance together with a seamless Microsoft Visual Studio integration makes it a perfect platform for such use cases as well.
TSN
TSN is well known as the future technical base for real-time, deterministic, resilient and congestion-free Ethernet. TSN provides determinism on hardware layer, but software will still introduce latencies. The acontis TSN stack provides a hard real-time solution for various platforms which overcome the limitations of the standard TCP/IP stack of the underlying operating system.
