FinsGateway Controller Link (PCI)
PCI Bus Controller Link Support Board
The Board is equipped with the FinsGateway Controller Link (PCI) and C
Library (Win32 DLL) as standard features. With the Board, user applications
can be created using the C language (Microsoft Visual C++ .NET 2003,
Microsoft Visual C++ Ver. 6.0). An overview of how to use the C Library is
described later in this manual.
SYSMAC Compolet Version 2 provides ActiveX controls for PC communica-
tions. User applications can be created more easily using Microsoft Visual
Basic. PLC Reporter 32, DataFlowNavi for Access, and AIMAX-FA are soft-
ware packages of communications middleware. These software packages
must be purchased separately. For details, refer to the manual for the appro-
priate software.
Controller Link Support Board data link data is stored in the event memory in
the computer. Event memory is shared memory with names such as DM or
CIO, and is stored in the computer memory. Event memory recreates virtually
the DM Area and CIO Area of a PC.
Event memory can be written or read by executing the C Library data link data
read/write functions ClkWriteDatalink( ) and ClkRead Datalink( ) from the user
program.
