CONPROSYS VTC 

This section describes how to use the information collected from PLCs and also the information 
instructed to PLCs with "CONPROSYS VTC". 

 

*The "CONPROSYS VTC" is a simplified processing/control function that can perform such as signal 
processing, determination, alarm, and file transmission installed as standard features on the 
CONPROSYS. 

 

Signal collection from PLC and instructions to PLC are implemented by PLC communication task 
processing and they are assigned to Modbus memory. 
Accessing PLC information with the  "CONPROSYS VTC" can be realized by reading and writing 
Modbus memory information. 

 

 

 

The "CONPROSYS VTC" functions including "Data Reading" (Modbus inputs) and "Data Writing " 
(Modbus outputs) are explained in the following pages. 
In this Guide, the functions up to referring to PLC data are explained. 
As for the basic operations and functions of the "CONPROSYS VTC", please refer to the "Reference 
Manual (Software)" or "Online Help".
