STW Brings Multitude of Innovations to MINEXPO 2016

NORCROSS, Ga. - Sept. 20, 2016 - PRLog -- STW Technic, a premier manufacturer of mobile controllers and measurement technology will be showcasing a multitude of innovations at MINEXPO 2016, Las Vegas, Nevada, September 26-28. STW will be at booth 26245.

Key highlights include STW's range of functional safety controllers.  Functional Safety Controllers from STW Technic, a premier manufacturer of mobile controllers and measurement technology, provide a fully integrated, highly flexible, SIL 2 certified software and hardware package for off-highway applications. Mobile machines today have to fulfill a multitude of complex functions. In order to minimize risk, engineers need to incorporate safety-related conditions from EN13849 and IEC61508. The resulting increased complexity in the application software directly increases the development effort, since it must also be ensured that the non-safety software functions do not adversely affect the safety related functions. The IEC61508-3 describes methods to control the possibility of negative impacts on the safety and so minimize the certification effort for the non-safety software components.

STW is offering engineers a comprehensive functional safety control solution that is fully integrated, SIL2 certified but highly flexible. The development and maintenance of a safety-relevant software application is made possible thanks to memory protection mechanisms that clearly separate safety and non-safety functions. STW's safety solution is the first SIL2 certified package for CoDeSys V3. A detailed safety manual clearly outlines the steps necessary to develop within the requirements of SIL2 and PLd.

Also on display will be STW's innovative Vehicle Data System.  Combined with STW's ESX-TC3G telematics hardware module, the Vehicle Data System offers every possible scenario for connectivity – local, remote, wifi, cellular and wired – with full functionality available in all modes for every type of intelligent client device (PCs, tablets, smart phones). The unique and powerful web-based configurability of VDS allows access to CAN, J1939, CANOpen and ModbusIP data with supreme ease.

The new release – VDS Remote - offers a complete best-of-breed solution for local and remote connectivity, diagnostics and analytics.It also brings a sophisticated web-based management portal to STW's telematics solution and establishes VDS as a uniquely flexible and powerful tool.
