Individual automation solutions with the ProConOS^® Developer Toolkit

ProConOS^® supports various options for integration into different environments, real-time operating systems and automation solutions. Within the last 10 years numerous system engineers worldwide have successfully used the ProConOS^® Developer Toolkit to rapidly create a control system for their target hardware.

ProConOS^® Toolkit: Install - compile - finished!

The ProConOS^® kernel is available for many combinations of CPUs and operating system versions. With the ProConOS^® Developer Toolkit, an individual automation solution can be created quickly. Depending on the target system, a highly reliable and powerful control can be created in a simple way.

Custom-made systems: In view of the open architecture and scalability, systems covering the range from small controls to high-performance systems can be custom-made.

The toolkit consists of the following components:

• Documentation (PDF) Developers Manual + User Manual: Complete documentation of the ProConOS^® API functions as well as of the operational behaviour of ProConOS^®.
• ProConOS^® library: The ProConOS^® kernel is provided as object library and is adjusted to a processor type and a real-time operating system. 
• Main module and public header in source: Template of the main routine for starting ProConOS^® as well as definition of the API functions of ProConOS^® .
• Make file: Template for the link process for creation of the executable ProConOS^®.

For integration of the customer-/industry-specific know-how, the toolkit provides the following ProConOS^®-API functions:

• Integration of I/O drivers 
• Integration of firmware functions and firmware function blocks (C-Code)
• Integration of specific communication drivers 
• Integration of file device drivers 
• Extension of the ProConOS^®-internal exception handling 
• Integration of ProConOS^® system hooks

Ask for availability of the ProConOS^® Toolkit for your hardware and software.

Is this still not flexible enough for you?

The concept of ProConOS^®, due to its open architecture, makes it possible to implement 

• additional processors 
• new operating systems 
• customer-specific extensions

These adaptations can be carried out as a service by KW-Software or by the customer himself.

Extensive documentation for system integrators

For the different levels of integration and adaptations of ProConOS^®, the extensive and perfected documentation for system integrators is available, with which significant projects were completed successfully.

The ProConOS^® interfaces

If you want to develop your own control based on your own hardware with your own real-time operating system, the system interface provides you with all interfaces required for this purpose.
