Configuring the system with SOPAS
The measurement system is adjusted by configuring the measuring conditions on site.
This enables measurement, analysis, and output properties to be configured as required.
The SOPAS ET configuration software (included) allows interactive configuration. You can
use the software to configure and test the properties, analysis behavior, and output
properties of the system as required.
6.2.1
Connecting the configuration PC
The SOPAS configuration software is installed on a PC which is connected via an Ethernet
cable – depending on the cabinet variant – to a free port on the SIM2000 system
controller or a free port on the Ethernet switch of the SIC2000.
The configuration software is available for download from the SICK home page.
