The smart way to configure
Fast backup and restore
With all the intelligence and advanced functions in SmartSlice
units, backup and recovery of settings are important
to support fast maintenance and repair of your machine.
These functions are therefore also tool-less in SmartSlice.
All I/O unit data can be backed up in the bus interface unit at
the flick of a switch. Recovery is even simpler; after hot-
swapping a unit, all settings are automatically loaded.
Tool-less replacement
Communication units for most networks are automatically
reconfigured by the master unit upon replacement.
For PROFINET, a special endplate is available that stores
essential communication settings. This makes it possible
to also replace PROFINET communication units on-site without
having to connect a configuration tool. Ideal for maintenance
in far-away places.
Easy to setup and maintain
When used with Omron DeviceNet and CompoNet Master
Units, no configuration is required at all. Simply set a bus
address and connect. After startup, the I/O configuration can
be stored with a single switch to make sure any incorrect
change of units is detected. Configuration of the ProfiNet IO
and Profibus is also easier than you expect; thanks to state-of-
the-art FDT/DTM* configuration tools, setting up a SmartSlice
station will just take a minute. Integration in existing systems
is never a problem; besides FDT/DTM, conventional
configuration by GSD (ML) file is also supported.
Restore
Configuration tools for all supported networks are included
in CX-One, Omron’s unique all-in-one software suite for
configuration, programming and monitoring of a complete
automation system, from sensor to drive, from HMI to PLC.
Transparent message routing built into Omron devices makes
sure that you can reach them all through a single connection.
Device status and preventive maintenance data are therefore
always accessible.
Variations are welcome
Production of modular machines suited to customer-specific
demands requires flexibility in I/O count. SmartSlice allows
virtual I/O units to be inserted in the configuration, so that the
PLC program can remain the same for all machine variations.
* FDT (Field Device Tool) technology standardizes the communication
interface between field devices and application software. It is
independent from the communication protocol and the software
environment of either the device or the host system. A DTM (Device
Type Manager) is a plug-in using this standard interface to add
a device-specific user interface and communication channel to any
FDT-based software tool. The combination FDT/DTM allows any device
to be accessed from any host system through any protocol.
