Overview

TelePACE is Control Microsystems' proprietary programming environment. This easy-to-use software package allows users to develop relay ladder logic networks for use in SCADAPack controllers. The software runs on Microsoft Windows NT™, Windows 2000 Professional™, Windows XP Professional™, Windows Server 2003™, Windows Vista Business™, Windows Vista Ultimate™ and Windows Vista Enterprise™ operating systems.

The TelePACE environment was designed with ease of use in mind. The TelePACE Ladder Editor allows the programmer to assign tag names to process I/O addresses and data registers. With drag and drop control, the programmer can place a wide array of functions in the ladder network including: contacts, outputs, counters, PID controllers, HART interface functions and more. Once complete the programmer can upload the application to the SCADAPack controller through a direct or network connection. Using the online monitoring function a field engineer can edit the program while online, providing a highly efficient debugging environment.

Licensing

A free demo version of TelePACE is available from Control Microsystems. The demo version shares all the functionality of the full version except for the ability to save completed applications to the hard drive.
