1. Introduction

WinPAC-5000 Series is the new generation PAC (Programmable Automation Controller). It is equipped a PXA270 CPU (520 MHz) running a Windows CE.NET

5.0 operating system, various connectivity (VGA, USB, Ethernet, RS-232/485) and I/O expansion bus.

The WinPAC-5000 series has many advantages, including hard real-time capability, small core size, fast boot speed, interrupt handling at a deeper level, achievable deterministic control and low cost. Using Windows CE.NET 5.0 gives it the ability to run PC-based control software such as Visual Basic.NET, Visual C#, Embedded

Visual C++, SCADA software, SoftPLC …etc. It give users all of the best features of

both traditional PLCs and Windows capable PCs. For hardware expansion, it also supports an I/O expansion bus. The I/O expansion

bus can be used to implement various I/O functions such as D/I, D/O,A/ D, D/A, Timer/Counter, UART, and other I/O functions. Nearly all kinds of I/O functions can be implemented by this bus. But the bus can support only one board. There are more than 10 boards available for WinPAC-5000 series, users can choose one of them to expand hardware features.

you want to save backup file and click the Ok button

Step 6: Wait for process to finish

WinPAC-5000 Series User Manual, Version 1.0.2 Page: 31

2.6. A caution about using System_Disk

The System_disk is an authoritative storage device, but is not suitable for frequent copying and deleting of files and is only suitable for storing important files that are not changed frequently.

If files are copied and deleted frequently, the system will automatically perform a System_Disk defragment action, which will consume the total resources of the CPU and cause the OS not to function correctly.

When the OS System_Disk defragment action is being performed, the run LED will blink and the defragment action icon will show in the system tray in the bottom right-hand of the pc screen.

Note: Do not power off the WinPAC while the defragment is being performed.

Tips & Warnings

Don not power off the WinPAC while the defragment is being performed..

3.3. Napopc_ce5

NAPOPC_CE5 DA Server is a free OPC DA Server (The "OPC"

stands for "OLE for Process Control" and the "DA" stands for " Data Access") working on WinPAC, ViewPAC & WinCon controllers provided by ICP DAS Ltd. The first standard (originally

called simply the OPC Specification and now called the Data Access Specification) resulted from the collaboration of a number of leading worldwide automation suppliers working in cooperation with Microsoft. Originally based on Microsoft's OLE COM (component object model) and DCOM (distributed component object model) technologies, the specification defined a standard set of objects, interfaces and methods for use in process control and manufacturing automation applications to facilitate interoperability. NAPOPC_CE5 DA Server integrates OPC, Modbus TCP Slave and Modbus RTU Slave three kind Slave services, as well as integrates Modbus TCP Master, Modbus RTU Master and DCON three kind Master communication protocols. It also provides one advanced

function “Rule Script” for use in the I/O integration and transformation, and some

conditional Logic operation.

Any version before 2.1.0 of the NAPOPC_CE5 was named “Quicker”

3.5. VCEP

ICPDAS VCEP is designed for managing your WinPAC anywhere. No matter where you are, ICPDAS VCEP provides a convenient environment on the Desktop PC and allows you control your WinPAC remotely.

ICPDAS VCEP is composed of two main components:

The “Server” which runs on WinPAC. The “Client" which runs on a Desktop PC.

Once a connection is established between the client and server (initiated by the client), the client will periodically send requests for screen updates and send mouse/key click information to the server to simulate. Each video frame is inter-compressed against the previous frame and then intra-compressed with a modified LZW scheme to minimize the amount of data transmitted from server to client.
