FCT (Festo Configuration Tool)
The Festo Configuration Tool (FCT) is the Windows-based software platform for parameterisation, com
missioning and diagnosis of actuators with configurable motor-axis combinations and positioning
systems (OMS). To prepare for commissioning, parameterisation on the PC can take place without a
connection to the controller (“offline”). For commissioning, a connection is required via the paramet
erisation interface (“online”).
FCT is included in the scope of delivery (CD-ROM) and is installed using an installation program. More
recent versions are available as downloads
è
www.festo.com/sp , CMMO-ST.
The FCT comprises the following modules:
–
the framework with general control elements and software functions
–
extension modules integrated in the framework (PlugIns) for every implemented type of device
The framework facilitates consistent project and data management of all supported types of device.
The plug-ins are managed and started from the framework. The PlugIn of a type of device supports the
structured delivery of all necessary steps to commission the actuator.
The software Help system contains detailed manuals relating to the FCT. The FCT online
help also has information about possible commissioning scenarios and initial start-up.
These contents are also available as PDF files (de/en).
