Festo Configuration Tool (FCT)
The Festo Configuration Tool (FCT) is the Windows-based software platform for configuration, paramet-
erisation and commissioning of different components and devices from Festo.
–
Manage parameter data and firmware files.
–
Manual operation (e.g. jog, etc.)
–
Diagnostics management
–
Recording of measurement data
The FCT consists of the following components:
–
a framework with uniform project and data management for all supported types of equipment.
–
one plug-in for every type of equipment (e. g. CMMS-AS)
The plug-ins are managed and started from the framework. They support execution of all necessary
steps for commissioning the motor controller. Generation of a motor controller parameterisation can
also be performed offline (without RS232 connection) on the PC/notebook. This enables preparation
for the actual commissioning, for example in the planning office when a system is being planned.
5.3.1
Installing the FCT
Note
The FCT plug-in “CMMS-AS” from version 2.0.0.x supports the motor controller
CMMS-AS-...-G2 with the firmware, from version 1.4.0.2.6.
With later versions of the motor controller, check whether there is an updated FCT plug-
in “CMMS-AS” available. If necessary, consult Festo.
Note
Windows administrator rights are required for installing the FCT.
The FCT is installed on your PC with an installation program:
1. Close all programs.
2. Insert the “Festo Configuration Tool” CD in your CD-ROM drive. If Auto-Run is activated on your sys-
tem, the installation starts automatically and you can skip steps 3 and 4.
3. Select [Execute] in the Start menu (for Windows 7: see “Accessories” menu).
4. Enter D:\Start (if necessary replace D by the letter of your CD ROM drive).
5. Follow the instructions of the FCT Assistant.
