Commissioning with FCT

The Festo Configuration Tool (FCT) is the software platform for
configuring and commissioning different components and
devices from Festo.

The FCT consists of the following components:

A framework as program start and entry point with uni-
form project and data management for all supported
types of devices,

A plug-in for the special demands of each device type
(e.g. MTR-DCI) with the necessary descriptions and dia-
logues. The plug-ins are managed and started from the
framework.

The MTR-DCI plug-in for the Festo Configuration Tool supports
all the steps necessary to commission an MTR-DCI. With the
MTR-DCI plug-in for the Festo Configuration Tool the
necessary parameter settings can be performed offline - that
is, without connecting the MTR-DCI to the PC. This enables
the actual commissioning procedure to be prepared in
advance, such as in the design office when planning a plant
setup.
