5 Automation Runtime

5.1 General information

An integral component of Automation Studio is the Automation Runtime real-time operating system. This real-time
operating system is the software kernel that allows applications to run on a target system.
• Guaranteed highest possible performance for the hardware being used
• Runs on all B&R target systems
• Makes the application hardware-independent
• Easy portability of applications between B&R target systems
• Deterministic behavior guaranteed by cyclic system
• Configurable jitter tolerance in all task classes
• Supports all major programming languages such as IEC 61131-3 and C
• Extensive function library conforming to IEC 61131-3 as well as the expanded B&R Automation library
• Integrated into Automation NET. Access to all networks and bus systems via function calls or the Automation
Studio™ configuration
B&R Automation Runtime is fully embedded in the corresponding target system (the hardware where Automation
Runtime is installed). It allows application programs to access I/O systems (e.g. via the fieldbus) and other devices
(interfaces, networks, etc.).
