Configuration Studio

The Studio manages all aspects of the control configuration, including configuration reports.
Based on a modular approach to system configuration, Configuration Studio allows you to create
and maintain control strategies in the T6200 controller.

You will be able to choose either Text File Configuration or Graphical Function Block Diagram
(FBD) Configuration. You can select the configuration format that is appropriate for your process
requirements. Control strategy development with graphical configuration is visually more
intuitive (making it easier for first time users) than text file configuration.

The Function Block Diagram – FBD - Configurator is based on the Straton for MICON
programming tool, a flexible IEC-61131-3 environment.
