Installation

Installing TwinCAT

Please refer to the appropriate TwinCAT documentation for details of its installation

Installing the SST Programs

The installation versions of the SST device driver for the 5136-CN PC card (DeviceDriver directory) and of the SST configuration tool (ConfigTool directory) are located in the Unsupported Utilities/Sst directory. Use the following procedure for installation:

Installing the SST Device Driver

Run the setup program from the Unsupported Utilities/Sst/DeviceDriver directory, and follow the instructions given by the program.

Installing the SST Configuration Tool

Run the setup program from the Unsupported Utilities/Sst/ConfigTool directory, and follow the instructions given by the program.

Performing the 5136-CN Hardware Settings (not necessary for the 5136-CN PCI)

Run the SST Card Configuration program, found under Programs->SST Card Config. Normally a window will appear with two default entries:

One entry should be deleted (using the Remove button), and the other should be edited (using Properties). A new dialog appears in which the I/O address of the 5136-CN is to be set in accordance with the DIP switch and where the memory address and the name can be adjusted.

Linking the EDS Files to the SST Configuration Tool

The program "CN Config Tool", found under "Programs->SST CN", should be run. If a BK7000 is to be used, the EDS file for the BK7000 (BK7000B8.eds, found under EDS Files on the CD) should be copied to the "Programs/SST/CN/CN Config Tool/EDS" directory.

EDS files can be added to the EDS library by means of the Add icon (on the far left).

A file selection dialog appears in which it is best to select all the files.

The EDS library is then loaded, and projects can be created.
