1. Smart Ethernet I/O P2P and GCL Introduction

2. Peer-to-Peer and GCL
Smart and Reliable Solution for Remote I/O

3. What is Peer-to-Peer?
Peer-to-Peer enabled modules can actively update input channel status to specific output channels, and then output status can be changed directly by the status of input channel.
Key Benefits
Proactive message from field, no need for constantly polling, minimize the network traffic
Enhanced response time, IO module can have real-time response in the field without involving the central controller

4. ADAM-6000 P2P – No Distance Limit
Automatically transfer data from Input to Output
No controller needed
No programming needed (All action is done by Utility)
When the data is transferred from Input to Output
Periodically (user can configure the period)
Periodically + Change of State (Event driven)
Two Mode
Basic Mode: One module  One module
Advanced Mode: One module  Multiple module
Support Module: ADAM-6015, 6017, 6018, 6050, 6051, 6052, 6060, 6066, 6050W, 6051W, 6060W
ADAM-6024 can only be the output module (receiver)

6. ADAM-6000 P2P acts as Event Trigger
Set PC as the target
Running one program on PC to receive message transferred by ADAM-6000 module
We will provide the example program to customer
Set the data transfer method as Periodically + Change of State (Event driven)

7. What is GCL (Graphic Condition Logic)?
GCL is the way Advantech put logic operation capabilities into Ethernet I/O modules. The control logic rules can be configured and downloaded through graphical interface in ADAM.NET Utility.
Key Benefits
Intuitive and Graphical design shorten the learning curve.
Up to 16 logic rules can be defined in one module, and the rules can be cascaded to build advanced control sequence
Control logic can be extended over Ethernet and cross modules, which is powerful enough to eliminate controller in simple application.

8. ADAM-6000 GCL One module can have 16 logic rules
Output can be local or remote module
TCP/IP Port: 1025

9. ADAM-6000 GCL: Logic Cascade
Logic rules on different modules can be combined together
No number limitation for logic cascade on different modules

10. Configure GCL rules in ADAM.Net Utility
Configure logic rule in Utility
No programming is needed
Download configured logic to ADAM-6000 module
One Logic Rule
One Module has 16 logic rule
Support Module: ADAM-6015, 6017, 6018, 6050, 6051, 6052, 6060, 6066
ADAM-6024 can only be the analog output module (receiver)

11. GCL Four Stages of Configuration
Input Condition
Logic
Execution
Output

12. Input & Logic Configuration
Four types gates available: AND, OR, NAND, NOR
Scaling Function available for Analog Input

13. Timing & Output Configuration
Execution
Output

14. ADAM-6000 GCL: Internal Flags
One Module have 16 Internal Flag
Logic Cascade: +
Using Internal Flag to create Feedback

15. GCL: On-line work flow monitoring
Current Input Value
The yellow dot means the execution flow has reached this stage

16. ADAM-6000 P2P & GCL Easy: 4 Steps, configure & go
Powerful: Cross Module integration
Cost Effective: Free upgrade, New functions with no additional charge

17. Application Concepts

18. Security and Surveillance
Unmanned Control room Management
With P2P enabled ADAM-6000 module you can have:
Event-driven alarm Message
Ethernet Interface
Easy massive program deploy/update
Input/Output mixed module to minimize the cost
Fire Alarm
Break-In

19. Enterprise Management
For national enterprise, it always be a challenge to get real-time information from each branch.
Take tank level monitoring as example, central control room needs to poll each site to get update, while the number of site is big, it may take long time to update each site
With ADAM-6000 GCL function, user can set high/low alarm to the module, and send message to control room with real-time information

20. Facility Monitoring
Heartbeat signal from existing device, with GCL function, ADAM-6000 module can count the input signal and act as external watchdog device.
Once the heartbeat stopped, ADAM-6000 module can either reset the device or pass alarm signal to central office via Ethernet
Reset
Central Office
Alarm
