B&R AutomationSoftware™ • General Information

Chapter 1 • B&R AutomationSoftware™

1. General Information

1.1 What is B&R AutomationSoftware™?

Complex automation tasks require the right tools. An increasing number of automation projects are being created in a shorter amount of time. All components must be seamlessly compatible.

Automation projects often begin with a very simple control task and later develop into complex positioning and visualization applications.

It is a distinct advantage for the user if e.g. changing to a B&R control family with higher performance requires little or no changes to the program source codes. Also, it should not be necessary to leave the B&R development environment when switching between application areas, e.g. switching from positioning to visualization.

Therefore B&R offers the right programming and diagnostics tools for every phase of development of an automation project. The desired components can be selected when installing the development system. New software does not have to be ordered when the requirements change. The user only has to select the required components from the installation CD.

B&R AutomationSoftware™ combines all software packages required for configuration, programming and operation of all B&R ControlSystems™, B&R MotionSystems™ and B&R PanelSystems™ components.

1.2 Three Terms – One Philosophy

The key areas during the creation of automation applications are described by B&R using the following terms:

At B&R, these terms are unified as a single philosophy, “B&R AutomationSoftware™”. It includes all components required to create, transfer and execute automation programs and data.

1.3 Complete Solution

The B&R concept is based on complete solutions. Such solutions extend the automation world well beyond the traditional hardware module strategy.

The basic directive when developing all B&R products is always compatibility – this refers to hardware and with B&R AutomationSoftware™ now also refers to communication, programming and application software.

• XGA 1024 x 768

3. Ordering the B&R AutomationSoftware™ CD


The unification of all software packages required to configure and program all B&R ControlSystems™, B&R MotionSystems™ and B&R PanelSystems™ components also applies to the ordering system. Therefore, depending on the application, only a few model numbers are needed to order the B&R AutomationSoftware™ CD.

B&R considers service and maintenance of the software components to be very important and is constantly striving to expand software capabilities and solve possible problems in order to fulfill the requirements of automation technology. In order to make these changes accessible not only to new customers, but also to our existing customers, it is necessary for customers to register with B&R (software licensing).

Licensing also is the basis of our upgrade service, which automatically supplies the customer with new versions of the B&R AutomationSoftware™ CD.

Note: This chapter only applies to licensing the development tools on the B&R AutomationSoftware™ CD. The software used on the system during runtime is subject to other licensing regulations. An explanation is provided in the "B&R Automation Runtime™" chapter.

The development tools on the B&R AutomationSoftware™ CD are designed for the following uses:

• Evaluation by customers or use at exhibitions and customer presentations

• Full version for software development

• Upgrade version for B&R customers

Development Tool Description

B&R Automation Studio™ For configuration, programming, visualization and diagnosis of controllers and drives.

B&R Automation Net™/PVI For connection of Windows™ programs to our controller families (programs and graphics).

B&R Automation Runtime™ Installation Kit Used to create installation diskettes for B&R Automation Runtime™ systems.

B&R Automation Studio™ • General Information

Chapter 2 • B&R Automation Studio™


The core package for programming automation applications is B&R Automation Studio™. It allows simple and efficient configuration and programming of B&R automation devices using a graphic user interface running in MS Windows™.

The clearly arranged structures allow simple use and a short learning period. Comprehensive online help is available if you have any problems. The entire package is available in English and German. The user decides which language should be used during installation.

2. Project Planning and Configuration

2.1 Project Planning

An important characteristic of a development system is the ability to establish a reference between the project and the physical system at any time. B&R Automation Studio™ offers this function in the project view. Here, the relationship between the hardware and software configuration is shown graphically.

Diagram 7: Project View


B&R Automation Studio™ • Project Planning and Configuration

2.2 Hardware Configuration

The hardware configuration on the left side of the main window shows the target system graphically using a tree structure. This “hardware tree” can be created by the user (offline) without a connection to the PCC, or automatically (online) with an active connection to the PCC. The modules are lined up according to their slots and shown according to their type (CPU, digital input, digital output, etc.).

Detailed information about the target system, from installation dimensions to terminal blocks, can be viewed in the integrated hardware documentation.

2.3 Software Configuration

The software configuration on the right side of the main window graphically displays the connection to the hardware.

The most important relationship between software and hardware is the direct assignment of symbolic program variables to physical terminals. The terminal is no longer accessed in the program with the terminal ID, instead it is accessed using this symbolic process variable name. Therefore , changing the “wiring” does not require program modifications.

The software project consists of one or more program objects (tasks) which are placed in various task classes. Task classes are groups of programs which are processed with the same cycle time (e.g.10 ms). This also includes data, system and advanced objects for special functions in addition to the program objects. All these objects are created using wizards.

Additional properties for these objects can be efficiently configured using corresponding property dialog boxes. Downloading the operating system also takes place using menu items in the software configuration.

B&R Automation Studio™ • Programming Languages

3. Programming Languages


The following programming languages can be used in B&R Automation Studio™:

• B&R Automation Basic™

• ANSI C

• IEC1131 Programming Languages:

• IEC1131 Ladder Diagram (LAD)

• IEC1131 Instruction List (IL)

• IEC1131 Structured Text (ST)

• IEC1131 Sequential Function Chart (SFC)

Syntax coloring (program key words are colored) eases the creation and analysis of source code for all programming languages. The declaration of variables, constants and data types (structures) takes place in context during programming or in dialog boxes.

Error messages are shown in the output window if programming errors occur. Double-clicking on these error messages opens the corresponding program editor and the faulty program lines are highlighted.

Program comments can be added between the lines, to the right of program commands or in suitable locations in the graphical languages to provide a detailed explanation of the program section. Documentation possibilities (printouts) are also available in all programming languages.

Different zoom settings or fonts can be used to compensate for low screen resolution or if more data should be displayed.

3.2 B&R Automation Basic™

B&R Automation Basic™ is a text or instruction based high level language developed by B&R. It contains language elements especially improved and adapted for B&R controllers in addition to the standard programming language elements.

B&R Automation Basic™ was developed from the PL2000 programming language and is therefore suitable for updating existing projects that were created with PG2000 (predecessor to B&R Automation Studio™) as well as for creating new projects in all areas of automation.

Diagram 9: Automation Basic™ (AB)



3.3 ANSI C

ANSI C was developed in the mid 70s from the language B (Basic Combined Programming Language) and is now a standardized, machine-oriented high level language which is well known worldwide. Even though it is not normal procedure for all PLC manufacturers, B&R has fully integrated this language into B&R Automation Studio™.

The ANSI C high level language is mostly used to create complex program sections where calculations are made, algorithms are created or existing C code is used.

3.4 IEC1131 Programming Languages

The IEC1131 standard summarizes the requirements for PLC hardware and their programming systems. The goal is to reduce costs for training as well as the creation and implementation of programs by using uniform methods. The IEC 1131-3 standard is a guideline for PLC programming and was developed by an international standardization group (International Electrotechnical Commission).

B&R has integrated this standard, referring to the following programming languages, into B&R Automation Studio™:

3.4.1 IEC1131 Ladder Diagram (LAD)

LAD is a diagrammatic programming method. It stems from electromechanical relay systems and defines the current flow through the individual networks. Therefore, ladder diagram looks similar to an electrical schematic and is mostly limited to processing Boolean signals (1=TRUE, 0=FALSE).

3.4.2 IEC1131 Instruction List (IL)

IL is a second generation instruction-oriented machine code programming language, similar to a comfortable assembler. IL is mostly used for formulating short program sections with logical functions (AND, OR, etc.) or as a common language used with other text and graphic based languages.

3.4.3 IEC1131 Structured Text (ST)

The Structured Text programming language is a high level language that does not use machine code instructions like IL, instead it uses abstract commands to create powerful command structures.

Structured Text, like B&R Automation Basic™, is used in all branches of automation technology as problem-oriented high level language.

Diagram 12: Instruction List (IL)

Diagram 13: Structured Text (ST)



3.4.4 IEC1131 Sequential Function Chart (SFC)

Sequential Function Chart SFC was created to separate complex tasks into clear steps and to define control flow between these steps. Sequential processes can be formulated which are executed parallel to each other. The steps can be written in another programming language or in SFC.

SFC was developed from step sequencer programming and is especially suited for processes with status changes in steps, e.g. a wash machine (prewash, wash, etc.) or a chemical mixing process.

B&R Automation Studio™ • Library Manager

4. Library Manager

Program sections that are required in several locations in the program can be stored as subprograms in function blocks which not only saves development time but also reduces the program size. Function blocks are simply assigned parameters and called where required.

The user can select from a wide variety of standard function blocks which are integrated in B&R Automation Studio™. The functions range from simple logic and mathematics operations to communication protocols and complex control algorithms. Using function blocks greatly decreases project engineering and development efforts.

Function blocks that have the same or similar topics are grouped together in libraries and managed using the Library Manager.

The Library Manager also allows custom function blocks to be created. The function block interfaces, the data types and constants used in a library are entered in a dialog box. Function blocks can be created for all programming languages. The help system can also be expanded to include documentation for custom function blocks.

Diagram 16: Library Manager

Diagram 17: Insert Library


B&R Automation Studio™ • Import/Export

5. Import/Export

The integrated import/export function allows you to import source code for other systems into the B&R Automation Studio™ or to make your own source code available to other development environments. Transfer takes place using conversion to/from ASCII text. Using existing PL2000 programs and function blocks is also possible.

6. Commissioning Utilities


Just because the program can be compiled without problems after creating the code in B&R program editors, does not necessarily mean that the program will run error-free on the target system. The commissioning utilities in B&R Automation Studio™ provide optimal support for analysis and diagnosis of logical and process-oriented problems.

6.2 Online Variable Monitor

Using the online variable monitor, the current value of all types of process variables (of course including elements of structures and arrays) can be displayed numerically or logically and can be changed (written to) during operation. "Forcing", which means manually setting the input and output states on the system, can also be done in the variable monitor.

6.3 Variable Trace

The variable trace is a frequently used commissioning tool. It can be used to graphically display the change of a variable value over a period of time. Fast changing processes, for example processes that change too quickly to be seen with the naked eye in the variable monitor, can be represented in a diagram and can even be measured (e.g. to determine the time between two status changes) using measuring cursors.

The variable trace is set up in B&R Automation Studio™. For example, the digital input that should be used to start recording the measurements can be defined. The measurements are recorded in sync on the B&R PCC. This guarantees that no values are "overlooked". The measurements are recorded even when B&R Automation Studio™ is not connected to the PCC! They are stored in a data buffer on the PCC and can be uploaded and displayed / analyzed using B&R Automation Studio™ at a later time.

B&R Automation Studio™ • Service

6.4 Debugger

"Debuggers" (source code level commissioning utilities) can be used to insert breakpoints into the program. The program can be executed in single steps or procedure steps starting from these breakpoints. If the "line coverage" function is activated, the program lines currently being executed are highlighted in the source code.

6.5 System Logbook

If a fatal error or critical change of state occurs, the system enters time stamped messages in the system logbook for the controller. They can be displayed using B&R Automation Studio™. It is also possible for the user to enter additional system messages, such as operation malfunctions, in the system logbook using function blocks. These messages can also be displayed using B&R Automation Studio™.

7. Service

Programming B&R Automation Studio™ can be done via a serial connection or network/modem connection. The connection can even switch between different media (e.g. from RS232 to CAN). This routing function makes remote diagnosis and programming very easy.

Service features also include clearing the application memory and updating the operating system on the controller. A cold restart (starting the controller with initialization of all variables) and a warm restart (starting the controller with the variable values used before the controller was turned off) are also included in the service features.

8. Motion Components


Motion Components provide an integrated solution for development, configuration and diagnosis of positioning, gear and cam profile applications. The axes are integral components of the project (objects). The axis parameters are edited and managed in the project.

8.2 Parameter Editor

The parameter editor allows you to edit, copy and display initialization parameters for an axis (e.g. encoder interface, limit values, reference modes, etc.). The parameters are displayed in plain text and physical units.

Diagram 19: Motion Components


B&R Automation Studio™ • Motion Components

8.3 Diagnosis using the Variable Monitor

The monitor displays all relevant data during operation of the axis (e.g. movement active/inactive, controller on/off, simulation mode on/off, errors yes/no, etc.). Any parameters and axis states can be chosen. Simultaneous diagnosis of multiple axes is also possible.

8.4 Diagnosis using the Oscilloscope Function

By defining trigger events such as start movement, end movement or manual trigger, up to 10 channels can be displayed simultaneously. Powerful zoom and measurement cursor functions are also integrated for evaluation.

8.5 Commissioning using an Efficient Test Environment

A special test environment allows setting and changing all the necessary initialization or movement parameters for the axis. The integrated oscilloscope function (display of movement data like position, speed, lag error) makes it very easy to optimize movements.

8.6 Cam Profiles

This is a tool for easy creation of custom movements (complicated calculations are no longer necessary). The movements can be created and tested directly in the editor for fast and optimal results. The movement can be easily analyzed by displaying higher derivatives (jolt) and dynamic torque (power).

8.7 Cam Editor

The Cam Editor is used to create cam profiles according to VDI2143 guidelines. Add-ons for fixed points, synchronous sections and splines with 3 segments round off the editor functions. Cam profiles are optimized according to position, speed, acceleration, jolt, and dynamic torque (power).

The powerful editor functions allow curves to be easily modified using the cursor and provide a clear workflow even with complex interrelations. The curves can be displayed mathematically or physically. The physical display also allows monitoring of static and dynamic (accelerated master) limits.

B&R Automation Studio™ • Visual Components

9. Visual Components

9.1 Solving Visualization and Control Tasks Together

Using Visual Components in B&R Automation Studio™, process pictures and other visualization elements can be created and tested together with the control task. This results in optimal interaction between visual and logic elements. This considerably shortens the time required for project engineering.

9.2 Picture Editor

The process pictures are created with the Visual Components picture editor, which is shown in B&R Automation Studio™ when creating or editing a panel object.

The picture editor adapts to the hardware. This means, the picture editor only allows functions that apply to the selected device. If, for example, projects are created for a Power Panel PP21, the editable area in the picture editor is limited to 4 x 20 characters and the 34 keys are displayed in the correct arrangement. If, for example, a B&R IPC with Touch Screen is used, the editable area is expanded to 640 * 480 pixels and softkeys are displayed.

In text mode, the picture editor allows the placement of text, bars graphs and input/output fields. In graphic mode, additional graphic features such as lines, rectangles or bitmaps are available. A bitmap collection simplifies the creation of frequently used picture elements.

Live controller values are selected from existing process variables available in the controller database and "connected" when the process picture is created.

Text can be entered and managed in multiple languages. During runtime, texts can be switched online to the language desired (including Asian fonts).

9.3 Alarm System

Alarms can be added, deleted or individually configured in the alarm editor. Individual alarms from one group can be combined to form a group alarm.

Alarms are managed as bit fields in the controller. One bit field is assigned to each alarm group. If the bit is set to 0 (FALSE), the alarm is inactive. If it is 1 (TRUE), the alarm is active and is displayed in the alarm list. Alarms are displayed using alarm fields. The alarm fields display the current status of the alarms during runtime. The following general alarm fields are currently available:

• Alarm Line

• Alarm List

• Alarm Summary

• Alarm History

The properties of an alarm can be set individually. You can specify whether the alarm has to be acknowledged, whether it can be by-passed and whether it can trigger a group alarm. Printout parameters can also be set individually. A line can be sent to the printer depending on the configuration of the alarm.

9.4 Transferring the Project to the Target System

Compiling and transferring the project to B&R Automation Runtime™ is also done together here. In other words, interdependencies between the visualization and control program are checked, recompiled if necessary, and transferred to B&R Automation Runtime™ via B&R Automation Net™. B&R Automation Net™ allows data to be transferred via a serial connection, CAN or ETHERNET.

B&R Automation Studio™ • TPU Code Linker

9.5 Runtime

Not only B&R Automation Studio™ was expanded to include Visual Components. B&R Automation Runtime™, the operating system for B&R target systems, was also expanded to include software components that allow the display and operation of process pictures.

Because of the direct connection between visualization and controller in B&R Automation Runtime™, there is no delay when accessing variables during runtime and the display is generated at optimum speed. Keyboard operation also directly influences the controller (important for jog key operation).

10. TPU Code Linker

A TPU is an integrated module from Motorola‘s 32 bit microcontroller family M68300. It can be used to carry out timing tasks without placing extra load on the CPU. Each incoming action triggers an event. The TPU handles processing of these events and therefore the CPU does not have to call interrupt routines. Some B&R modules (e.g. CP474, IP161, etc.) use processors with a TPU, therefore the TPU can be put to use with the help of the TPU Code Linker.

Diagram 22: Runtime

Diagram 23: TPU Code Linker


B&R Automation Studio™ • Manuals

The following timing functions are supported:

• Input recognition / input edge counter

• Output comparator

• Pulse width modulation

• Synchronized pulse width modulation

• Period measurement

• Period measurement with edge recognition

• Position synchronized pulse generator

• Stepper motor

• Gate measurement

The TPU Code Linker allows the functions described above to be assigned to the 16 channels on the TPU which enables the corresponding functions on the connected digital inputs or outputs. The preset values or results are transferred to/from the application program using function blocks.

B&R Automation Net™ • General Information

Chapter 3 • B&R Automation Net™


1.1 Transparent Communication with B&R Automation Net™

According to the philosophy "One Tool, Many Targets", B&R AutomationSoftware™ provides the possibility to program and configure all types of B&R systems with one uniform development tool. However, this means that communication between these components also has to be uniform in order to guarantee that communication is transparent for all stations.

Each station must be able to exchange and process program objects and/or process variable objects,

• independent of the operating system used (PCCSW, B&R Automation Runtime™, Windows™ 95/98/ME/NT/2000),

• independent of the media used (RS232, CAN, Ethernet, Profibus, modem, memory, etc.)

• and independent of the transfer protocol used (INA2000, Net2000, Mininet, etc.).

One of the primary tasks of B&R Automation Net™ is to establish and maintain an optimal connection between the intelligent modules from B&R.

1.1.1 Access to B&R Automation Net™

Communication within B&R Automation Net™ can be transparent, but different interfaces must be used at the end points where the information is actually processed on the respective operating system.

Diagram 24: Transparent Communication


B&R Automation Net™ • Process Visualization Interface (PVI)

Each operating system requires a corresponding interface to B&R Automation Net™. Therefore, the obvious choice was to use a function block interface (INA Client FBKs) for access on PCC systems and, for example, a DLL interface (PVI) to access B&R Automation Net™ on Windows™ systems.

2. Process Visualization Interface (PVI)


Using Process Visualization Interface (PVI) to access B&R Automation Net™ creates a common interface to the B&R industrial PC environment for all Windows™ based software packages.

2.2 Central Communication on the IPC

With PVI, you not only have uniform, coordinated access to various media and protocols. It also assists the user when working with all types of process data (variables, modules, status, etc.) and when controlling connected devices (Start, Stop).

During the development of PVI, the main focus was to incorporate all services and transfer possibilities that are required for B&R Automation Studio™ and all other B&R standard packages. And this is the advantage for the user. Incorporating these programming device functions provides the user with additional possibilities. For instance, programs can be downloaded and uploaded without starting B&R Automation Studio™.

These functions are made available to the user and all B&R standard packages using a PVI client interface. A Windows DLL interface is used which provides optimal performance.

B&R Automation Net™ • PVI Server Types

2.3 Client/Server Technology

The PVI Client/Server principle also allows remote operation of PVI applications. That means, PVI applications (most importantly B&R Automation Studio™) functioning as PVI clients can transmit process variables and programs to/from the PVI server via networks, modem connections or other communication media. Changing the PVI application is therefore not necessary, regardless of if local or remote operation is used.

2.4 Open for Other Architectures

Using additional PVI expansions, it is possible to link architectures such as DDE, OPC or HTML to PVI and then send them on to B&R Automation Net™. These PVI expansions are used as expansion servers and are included in the PVI standard package.

3. PVI Server Types

3.1 PVI DDE Server

Some programming environments and older applications use the Dynamic Data Exchange interface (DDE) for data exchange. This interface uses the server name, topic and item to assign addresses.

3.2 PVI Web Server

The PVI Web Server was created for applications where a standard web browser is sufficient for displaying process data. An IPC connected to the controller and running the web server is required. Another PC with a standard Internet browser can establish a connection to the Web Server via a network (e.g. Intranet or Dial-up). After the connection is made, the process data is displayed on the monitor.

3.3 PVI OPC Server

“OLE for Process Control” is a standard interface mostly used for visualization or SCADA packages (Supervisory Control And Data Acquisition). It is mostly used to carry out generally formulated read and write instructions for controllers. The PVI OPC Server is also used by our SCADA package Genesis32™ to access B&R Automation Net™.

3.4 PVI Control

Another interface is provided using the PVI Controls. It is a interface to B&R Automation Net™ especially suited for Visual Basic and VBA programmers, e.g. for communication with B&R PCC networks. The main focus was placed on simple operation. In a short amount of time, PCC variables can be displayed by simply “connecting” them to Visual Basic Standard Controls without additional programming. Setting parameters instead of programming is the strategy used.

Diagram 26: PVI Control


B&R Automation Net™ • PVI Server Types

This simple configuration is coupled with powerful support for online language changes. The respective formats, scaling functions, fonts (including Asian) and hysteresis monitoring are also available in addition to displaying messages in other languages.

PVI Controls therefore create a comfortable and efficient interface for small and midsized applications - for first-time programmers as well as visualization experts.

3.5 INA2000 Client FBKs

Access to B&R Automation Net™ from PCC programs takes place using INA2000 Client FBKs. These function blocks not only allow process variables to be read from a PCC connected to the network, actively sending process variables from one PCC to another is also possible. Cyclically polling variables is no longer necessary. This drastically decreases the load on transfer lines. Transferring buffered data (e.g. messages, status changes with time stamp) is also possible.

B&R Automation Runtime™ • General Information

Chapter 4 • B&R Automation Runtime™


1.1 What is B&R Automation Runtime™?

Runtime systems are software environments where programs can be run and tested.

At B&R, programs are created using B&R Automation Studio™. These programs are transferred to B&R Automation Runtime™ using B&R Automation Net™. They can be run and tested there.

B&R Automation Runtime™ is fully embedded in the respective B&R Automation Target (hardware where B&R Automation Runtime™ is installed). It allows application programs to access I/O systems (also via field bus) and other devices (interfaces, networks, etc.).

1.2 One Runtime System for all B&R Automation Targets

B&R Automation Runtime™ completely encapsulates the B&R Automation Target (target hardware) and creates a uniform interface between the application program and the “device environment”.

Using a uniform interface provides the user with a decisive advantage. Switching from one Automation Target to another requires little or no changes to be made to the source code. The source code of the programs can basically be used for all B&R Automation Runtime variations and can be exchanged between them.

For the many users that are already familiar with our 2003/2005/2010 PCC systems and our operating system software PCCSW, there is no change of philosophy. PCCSW can be seen as the predecessor of B&R Automation Runtime ™. B&R Automation Runtime ™, as further advancement of PCCSW, should be viewed as generic term for all B&R controller operating systems. The functions previously available in PCCSW are consequently also available in B&R Automation Runtime ™.

2. B&R Automation Targets from the Industrial PC Family

B&R Automation Runtime™ is used on three B&R Automation Targets from the B&R IPC family.

2.1 AR010 for B&R IPC5000 with Windows™ NT

A real-time operating system is imposed over Windows™ NT which takes total control of the PC resources and handles Windows™ NT as the task with the lowest priority within this real-time operating system.

B&R Automation Runtime™ AR010 is based on this real-time operating system. Therefore the control tasks running on B&R Automation Runtime™ AR010 have priority over Windows™ NT tasks. They even continue running when Windows™ NT has stopped functioning.

2005 or 2010 controller expansions or CAN I/O are used for I/O connections.

2.2 AR102 for B&R IPC2001 Embedded Version

B&R Automation Runtime™ AR102 is based on an embedded real-time operating system that was adapted especially for our controller tasks. No Windows™ based components are necessary.

CAN, ISA I/O and other systems are used for the I/O connections.


B&R Automation Runtime™ • Installation Kit

2.3 AR105 for B&R IPC5000 Embedded Version

B&R Automation Runtime™ AR105 is based on the same embedded real-time operating system as AR102. However, it has been adapted for the IPC5000. CAN, ISA I/O, PCI bus and other systems are used for the I/O connections.

3. Installation Kit


If B&R Automation Runtime™ is not already on B&R automation devices from the B&R IPC family, it must first be installed. This is done using installation diskettes which are created using the "B&R Automation Runtime™ Installation Kit". The Installation Kit is included on the B&R AutomationSoftware™ CD.

The B&R Automation Runtime™ Installation Kit is a MS Windows™ based program. The Installation Kit is called from the menu program on the development device (started when the CD is inserted). After entering certain options concerning the target device, the Installation Kit creates a disk set for the target system.

Diskettes are used to copy data because this is the only media that can be used on all IPCs. CD drives are not always available, and serial or parallel communication is slow and hard to configure.

The installation diskettes created on the development device using the B&R Automation Runtime™ Installation Kit contain a boot disk and several follow-up disks containing compressed files.

After booting the system with the boot disk, the user is prompted to insert the follow-up disks until B&R Automation Runtime™ is completely installed.

After completing the installation and installing the hardware security key, B&R Automation Runtime™ can be run on the target system after rebooting. The automation project can then be loaded and tested using B&R Automation Studio™.

3.2 Typical Use

Creating the Installation Diskettes

• Insert the B&R AutomationSoftware™ CD

• Start the B&R Automation Runtime™ Installation Kit for AR102 or AR105

• Select device options and create installation diskettes

Installation of B&R Automation Runtime™ on the Target System

• Attach the license sticker

• Install the hardware security key

• Insert the first installation diskette

• Call the partitioning options (hard disk or Compact Flash is partitioned)

• Boot target system

• Call the formatting options (hard disk or Compact Flash is formatted)

• Boot target system

• Start the installation (B&R Automation Runtime™ is installed)

• Insert the follow-up diskettes

• After rebooting, the target system is ready for operation

4. Ordering the Licenses

B&R Automation Runtime™ is the runtime system for automation projects developed with B&R Automation Studio™. It is either preinstalled on the B&R automation device or it is installed on the B&R automation device by the user using a disk set.

Note:A B&R Automation Runtime™ installation disk set is created using the B&R Automation Runtime™ Installation Kit. The Installation Kit is included on the B&R AutomationSoftware™ CD.

B&R Automation Runtime™ • Order Data for Runtime Systems

For B&R automation devices with B&R Automation Runtime™ already installed (e.g. newer generation B&R SYSTEM 2005), it is not necessary to order a B&R Automation Runtime™ license separately because the license is included with the B&R automation device.

For B&R automation devices without B&R Automation Runtime™ installed (e.g. IPC2001), a runtime license must be ordered separately for each B&R automation device. For example, it is possible that the type of operating system to be used on the device is not yet known when ordering an IPC.

The B&R Automation Runtime™ license consists of a license sticker, which is attached to the B&R automation device, and a hardware security key, which is installed in or connected to the device.

There are different types of B&R Automation Runtime™ licenses available depending on the type of the B&R automation device.
