ADAM-6000 Ethernet I/O Modules Introduction 13 Nowadays Advantech's ADAM-6000 accomplishes the integration of automation and enterprise systems easily through internet technology, so that users can avoid changing the entire architecture of the control system and even remotely monitor the device status more flexibly. Advantech's ADAM-6000 modules are empowered by peer-to-peer (P2P) and Graphic Condition Logic (GCL), and can perform as standalone products for measurement, control and automation. Instead of having additional controllers or programming, system configurations can be done in an extremely short time with the easy-to-use and intuitive graphic utility. ADAM-6000 Ethernet I/O Modules Features Peer-to-Peer Unlike master/client mode, peer-to-peer enabled modules will actively update the input channel status to specific output channels. Without dealing with the trouble of long distance wiring, users can define the mapping between a pair of modules (one input and one output module) and then the input value will be transferred to the output channel actively, which greatly simplifies the process and means that no controller is required. Graphic Condition Logic GCL (Graphic Condition Logic) functionality empowers Ethernet I/O modules control ability. Users can define the control logic rules through graphical configuration environment in Adam/Apax .NET Utility, and download defined logic rules to specific ADAM-6000 Ethernet I/O module. Then, that Ethernet module will execute the logic rules automatically just like a standalone controller. With the easy-to-use and intuitive graphic utility, system configurations can be done in an extremely short time. Local Output Remote Output Advanced Security and High Reliability ADAM-6000 Ethernet I/O modules not only have a fast response time (< 1.2 ms), but also advanced security and reliability. When engineers use peer-topeer modules, the output module can only be controlled by its paired input module, rather than controlled by other non-authorized computers or devices. Even when communication between pairs of ADAM-6000 peer-to-peer modules is broken, the digital output module can generate pre-defined values to ensure safety. Online Monitoring After users complete all GCL configurations in Adam/Apax .NET Utility, they can simply click the "Run Monitoring" button. Then users can see a real-time execution workflow of the logic rules on ADAM-6000 modules and current input values will also be displayed. This greatly helps users to maintain the system.
