The ACP1 module includes two options for real-time data transfer:

 Direct PLC I/O bus: Allows the ACP1 coprocessor to emulate a standard I/O module so

that discrete and/or word image register data is transferred each PLC scan.

 Data Cache: Proprietary link offering enhanced data throughput to CTI 2500 Series®

controllers via an external Ethernet connection. Provides access to all PLC memory

types and up to 1024 PLC memory locations.

CTI Workbench is used for configuration of module parameters and development of the user

application program for the 2500P-ACP1. CTI Workbench is a full-featured utility with integrated

configuration tool, programming editor, debugger, data monitor, and simulator. The application

program may be developed in any of five IEC-61131 programming languages. A complete library

of functions is provided to perform the following tasks:

 Complex mathematical computations

 Boolean logic

 Data conversion

 String handling

 Timer/Counter operations

 PID control

 Alarm monitoring

 Complete data logging system (including time-stamped data storage and automatic FTP

file transfer to remote FTP Server)
