SOM - INDUSTRIAL COMMUNICATION EXPLORER test your application

The ICE Industrial Communication Explorer is an accompanying tool for all devices powered by the GOAL Device Detection protocol such as SoM/iRJ45 device and assists in developing applications on Windows, Linux and Mac OS.

The tool allows to configure the device, creating snapshots of the current state, update the firmware, read logs and initiate a PROFINET, EtherNETIP or EtherCAT connection using the integrated master emulators.

Thus, the tool can also assist in the production line of devices for setting the default state of the device such as the initial firmware or device configuration.

The Industrial Communication Explorer (ICE) is an accompanying tool for developers of the SoM/iRJ45 device and assists in developing applications. The Device Manager provides the following functionalities:

  • scanning for devices in the network (device detection)
  • Reading and writing the configuration of a device via the ConfigManager
  • Reading and resetting the device log
  • Reading and resetting the exception log
  • Updating the firmware of the device
  • PROFINET RT Master Simulator: allows to establish a PROFINET RT connection and exchange I/O data with the device
  • EtherNetIP Scanner Simulator: allows to establish an EtherNetIP connection and exchange I/O data with device
  • EtherCAT Master Simulator: allows exchange of I/O data, reading and writing the object dictionary, cycle through the EtherCAT state machine and writing the EEPROM
  • Creating snapshots of the device: Reads the current configuration, the log data and the exception data which can be examined for debugging purposes. The data can then be exported and imported to and from a file.

The tool is available for Windows, Linux and Mac OS operating systems.

    • Scanning for devices in the network (device detection)

    • Reading and resetting the device log
    • Reading and resetting the exception log
    • Updating the firmware of the device
    • Creating snapshots of the device
    • test I/O data exchange with an iRJ45 device via a PROFINET RT connection
    • identify the device via the PROFINET DCP protocol
    • set a station name via the PROFINET DCP protocol
    • set the IP configuration via the PROFINET DCP protocol
    • trigger the Wink command via the PROFINET DCP protocol
    • read/write I&M 1-4 records via the PROFINE RT protocol
    • see alarms generated by the device
    • scan for EtherNet/IP adapters
    • read device data
    • tests I/O data exchange with an iRJ45/SoM device
    • test I/O data exchange with an iRJ45/SoM device via EtherCAT
    • identify the device via the EtherCAT
    • cycle through the different states of the EtherCAT state machine
    • retrieve the object dictionary from the device
    • read object dictionary values
    • adjust RxPDO and TxPDO mapping
    • write the EEPROM of the device
