Application Description
The CH Studio Software runs on any
personal computer hosting one of
the following supported Windows
operating systems:
■ MS Windows XP.
■ MS Windows 2000.
A typical automation system is
comprised of a programmable logic
controller acting as a master, and
numerous slave devices such as
network adapters and motor starters.
The devices are networked via an
industrial fieldbus such as DeviceNet
or Modbus/TCP.
A personal computer hosting CH
Studio may be connected to an indus-
trial network using a supported inter-
face card or common Ethernet port
(a variety of network protocols, such
as Modbus/TCP, utilize Ethernet for a
physical layer). CH Studio can then be
used to configure and commission the
automation products and network.
