Protocol Communication drivers<= /p>
Connectivity is a key feature of the FactoryStudio platform. The communi= cation drivers of FactoryStudio are divided in 3 groups:
Included Protocols= a>: communication drivers installed by default with the product.
Supported Protocols= : drivers not included in the installation, but available upon re= quest.
Premium Protocols= : drivers included on the installation, but requiring extension licen= sing.
New drivers and continuously being created by Tatsoft and partner compan= ies using our C= ommunication Driver Toolkit.
The following communication protocols are included on the standard produ= ct distribution (listed alphabetically):
There are many protocols that are not released in the product distributi= on, but are available upon request at no charge. Some of those protocols ar= e already in the release state, others are under development and testing. C= ontact us if you have a requirement for any of the protocols on this list. = Even if your required equipment is not listed, contact us. In many cases, i= f we have access to protocol documentation and testing units, there is no c= harge to create a native interface.
Here are our currently supported protocols, in alphabetical order:
There are a few interfaces that are available but not included on the pr= oduct distribution, as they have their own installation packages or they ar= e sold as an optional extension. This includes the following protocols, in = alphabetical order:
The Tatsoft team has extensive experience in the creation of communicati= on drivers. We have created more than two hundred interfaces over the past = twenty years.
As a result of that accumulated experience, FactoryStudio has an open st= andard interface, the Driver Toolkit, to allow new protocols to be added in= an easy and efficient way. The standard built-in infrastructure takes care= of everything related to the physical sending and receiving of messages, a= ccess to real-time tags, address configuration, and diagnostic and performa= nce tools.
The Driver Toolkit is available to System Integration partners and licen= sed end users. Contact us if you have a requirement to create your own cust= om interfaces.
