μPAC-7186EX-FD/μPAC-7186EXD-FD
Programmable Automation Controller
 
 
Model: μPAC-7186EX-FD
Model: μPAC-7186EXD-FD
   
 
μPAC-7186EX-FD, a palm-sized programmable automation controller, features data logging, I/O control as well as various COM ports, such as Ethernet, RS-232 and RS-485. At the same time, ICP DAS also provides easy-to-use software development tool kits (Xserver, VxComm, Modbus libraries). By taking advantage of them, your serial devices are easily able to be integrated with μPAC-7186EX-FD, and furthermore, enjoy the ability of Ethernet!? Through the standard Modbus protocol, μPAC-7186EX-FD also seamlessly works with SCADA software, like Indusoft, ISaGARF, DasyLab, Trace Mode, Citect, iFix, etc.

For the hardware, it supports an I/O expansion bus. By pairing the I/O expansion bus with different kinds of X-boards, various I/O functions can be performed, such as D/I, D/O, A/D, D/A, Timer/Counter, UART, flash memory, battery backup SRAM, ASIC key and so on. From now on, there are more than 50 X-boards available for μPAC-7186EX-FD. Come on, and choose one of them to make your project outdoing others! * One X-board for the I/O expansion bus at one time.

Compared to μPAC-7186EX, μPAC-718EX-FD equips with an extra 64MB flash memory. By using the built-in MFS (MiniOS7 File System) library, you can freely read/write files from/to the 64MB flash memory. Simply with the μPAC-786EX-FD, many kinds of data-logging applications become a piece of cake! For example, log analog signals with timeline, or log RS-232/485 data for further analysis.
 
Support for Virtual COM technology
Using the VxComm technology, PC can create virtual COM ports to map the RS-232, RS-485 of the μPAC-7186EX-FD. The software running on the PC can operate the virtual COM ports like a standard COM port to access the serial devices connect to the μPAC-7186EX-FD. That is to say, the original software developed for the serial devices can access the serial devices via the Ethernet/Internet without any modification.

Each PC can control up to 256 COM ports (including real COM ports). Using the I/O expansion board, each μPAC-7186EX-FD can have up to 8 COM ports.
Support Modbus Protocol
Using the Modbus firmware, μPAC-7186EX-FD offers following Modbus features:
  • Modbus/TCP/RTU/ASCII slave
  • Modbus/TCP/RTU/ASCII master
  • Gateway for Modbus/TCP to Modbus/RTU
 
Easy-to-use software development tool kits (using C language)
If the default firmware does not totally fulfill the user's application needs, custom firmware can be developed for μPAC-7186EX-FD using the SDK (Xserver, Modbus library) provided by ICPDAS.
Ethernet Protocols
TCP, UDP, IP, ICMP, ARP

Support Web Configuration
μPAC-7186E-FD has a built-in web server for configuration. You can use standard web browsers (such as IE, Netscape, Firefox,..etc) to configure its Ethernet and COM ports configurations.

Remote Configuration/Maintenance
μPAC-7186EX-FD can be operated via the Ethernet (TCP/IP or UDP) or RS-232, to allow tasks such as downloading programs, configuration, updating the MiniOS7, etc.

Built-in watchdog timer (WDT)
μPAC-7186EX-FD include an internal watchdog timer (WDT). The watchdog timer will trigger a system reset if the main program fails or neglects to regularly service the watchdog. The intention is to bring the system back from the hung state into normal operation.
I/O Expansion Bus Interface
The μPAC-7186EX-FD support the use of an I/O expansion bus to add a single I/O Expansion Board. ICPDAS provides all function libraries for I/O Expansion Boards to enable easy use of the I/O Expansion Board functions.
MiniOS7 File System (MFS) for data logger application on 64MB flash memory
  • Can dynamically read/write/append data to files continuously
  • Provides C language API (mfs_OpenFile, mfs_CloseFile, mfs_WriteFile, mfs_ReadFile, …, etc)
  • Writing Verification (To make sure written data is correct)
  • Automate file system recovery in the event of unexpected reset or power losses
