8 Automation Runtime
8.1 General information
A integral component of Automation Studio is the real-time operating system. This real-time operating system
makes up the software kernel which allows applications to run on a target system.
•
Guaranteed highest possible performance for the hardware being used
•
Runs on all B&R target systems
•
Makes the application hardware-independent
•
Applications can be easily ported between B&R target systems
•
Cyclic runtime system guarantees deterministic behavior
•
Multitasking according to deterministic runtime rules
•
Configure priorities, time classes, and jitter tolerance
•
Up to eight different time classes with any subprograms
•
Guaranteed response to time and jitter tolerance violations
•
Exception handling
•
Configurable jitter tolerance in all task classes
•
Supports all relevant programming language such as IEC 61131-3 and ANSI C
•
Extensive function library conforming to IEC 61131-3 as well as the expanded Automation library
•
Access to all networks and bus systems via function calls or the Automation Studio configuration
B&R Automation Runtime is fully embedded in the corresponding target system (this is the hardware where Au-
tomation Runtime is installed). It allows application programs to access I/O systems (e.g. via fieldbus) and other
devices (interfaces, networks, etc.).
