The SIXNET I/O Tool Kit is special software that has been created to make your job easier. It is a completely integrated suite of project-oriented tools that help you quickly and effectively view the "big picture" as you design, install and maintain your important systems. Other I/O vendors supply primitive configuration tools that view each I/O device as a stand-alone island. The SIXNET I/O Tool Kit distinguishes itself by providing complete asset management software.

Systems can now be designed, installed and maintained with a single easy-to-use toolkit, which can be launched from a single icon. These "mission oriented" tools are logically organized to save you time.

Projects with hundreds of stations and with tens of thousands of tags may be viewed as a complete entity. Interactions between system elements are organized for you and then documented.

Project trees enable you to view the system from multiple viewpoints, including by physical location, by logical (communications tree) connections, and by product type. Data can be filtered and sorted to let you focus on any aspect of the system at any time.

Setup wizards guide you through step-by-step configuration of SIXNET products and software features.

Advanced real-time error checking alerts you to potential problems as soon as they appear. Yellow and red highlighting alert you to warning and error conditions. Meaningful explanations are provided. An advanced reporting window traces actions and sequential operations and helps you pinpoint the cause of errors.

The SIXNET I/O Tool Kit is complete Asset Management software. (Comparable software is supplied by other vendors only with large and expensive DCS systems). Even the least expensive SIXNET system has the power of an expensive DCS. The SIXNET I/O Tool Kit elevates the concept of Scalable Control Systems to a new plateau.
