Flexibility in engineering

Firmware solutions, including the FSoE host/device stack for safe communication between devices via the FSoE protocol and our Safety Integrated Core (SIC100), which provides the firmware kernel for a safe device, are another integral part of our toolkit.

The toolkit also contains applications for CPU and memory tests (Test Library Cora), the realisation of safety motion functions (Safety Motion Library) and calculation with single or double precision floating point numbers (Floating Point Library).

Furthermore, the Hardware Abstraction Layer provides a solution for the firmware connection to the respective hardware architecture.

Ultimate flexibility in engineering

In times of scarce resources, innovative technologies are essential.

At Neuron Automation, we pursue an entirely new engineering concept: We combine safe and non-safe applications as well as libraries from IEC languages and C/C++ in a seamless development environment.

To enable the parallel programming of safety functions alongside applications, it integrates a pre-certified safety toolchain that supports the engineering of safety functions up to SIL 3 according to IEC 61508, PLE according to ISO 13849, and ASIL C according to ISO 26262.

The combination with our runtime systems enables fast, flexible and efficient programming of functionally safe control applications.

Engineering Tools

• Neuron Power Engineer
  Neuron Power Engineer is the current engineering tool for development of safe and non-safe applications. Furthermore, it is used to develop and test reusable libraries. It satisfies the needs of developers and automation engineers alike.
  
  
• Neuron Smart Engineer
  Neuron Smart Engineer is the next generation of engineering tools. Built on the proven and platform independent backend of the Neuron Power Engineer, it provides a modern and intuitive web-based front end to cater to an even broader range of users from developers and automation engineers to safety engineers and maintenance technicians.

Runtimes

With our runtime system variants, we offer an easily integrable, flexible Soft-PLC.

The solutions built on top of it range from simple applications on cost-effective microcontrollers to PLC networks processing millions of data points in real-time. Cloud-based and virtualized programmable logic controllers (PLCs) are also possible.
