Overview
Everybody can be a programmer! Moxa’s Click&Go
event
-based control logic for the ioLogik
Active Ethernet I/O
eliminates the cumbersome programming generally required
for data acquisition, alarm messaging, and local control
tasks. No knowledge of C
-
language or PLC ladder is required
for field applications. Instead, users familiar with
IF
-THEN-ELSE statements will have no problem understanding the Click&Go interface and will be able to
control I/O channels and alarm messaging after a few simple steps. The configuration utility also makes the
control process easy to define and configure.
Simply download the logic to the ioLogik Active Ethernet I/O
device
and Click&Go will be ready-to-go in no time. Click&Go performs various functions including local I/O
status
, remote output control, alarm generation and messaging, and event-driven or time-based I/O status
reporting. Click&Go eliminates the need for host computers to continually poll I/O devices for status. Instead,
the
device
itself is able to monitor the status of each I/O device and take the appropriate action when the I/O
status satisfi
es a user-defined condition. For example, users may need to configure the ioLogik to send a
TCP/UDP message only when the switch attached to DI
-0 is turned on. This event-
based structure results in a
much improved response time and a much reduced load on t
he host computer’s CPU and on network
bandwidth. Simple IF
–THEN–ELSE statements are used to specify conditions that are required for certain
actions to take place. Up to three conditions, three actions and three opposite actions (ELSE), can be combined
in
a rule, and you can define up to 80 rules. Supported actions include sending SNMP traps or TCP/UDP
messages to up to 10 hosts at a time.
The ioLogik E4200’s Active Ethernet I/O system eliminates the need for host computers to continually poll I/O
devices for status. Instead, the ioLogik itself is able to monitors the status of each I/O channel and take the
appropriate action when the I/O status satisfies a user-defined condition. For example, the ioLogik E4200 could
be configured to send a TCP/UDP message only when a temperature sensor attached to TC-00 channel reports
a reading of 85°C. This structure results in a much improved response time and a much reduced load on the
host computer’s CPU and on network bandwidth.
Click&Go Logic was developed to provide an easy and intuitive way to configure when and how I/O information
is transmitted over the network. Using simple IF-Then-Else statements, you set the conditions that need to be
satisfied and the resulting actions. Up to three conditions and three actions can be combined in any one rule,
and up to 80 rules can be defined in a ruleset. Each SNMP trap, TCP/UDP message, up to 10 hosts, and SMS can
be transmitted to up to 5 hosts simultaneously.
