Fiord: Humming-bird

Humming-bird - the hardware-software instrumental platform for creation of the management information systems.

On June 5, 2015 the Fiord company announced Humming-bird - the domestic hardware-software instrumental platform.

2016: Humming-bird-K1 PLC

On March 21, 2016 the FIORD company announced an output to the market of a PLC of Humming-bird-K1 with the built-in executive system of ISaGRAF 6 Fiord Target under Linux ISaGRAF-controller OS^[1].

PLC of the Humming-bird-K1 (2016)

Functionality of the software

• programming in languages of the IEC 61131-3 and IEC 61499 standards using technology of programming ISaGRAF
• "hot" reservation of controllers
• maintaining archives of historical data
• automatic data exchange between Humming-bird-K1 controllers
• drivers of the IEC 60870-5-104 Master/Slave protocol
• drivers of the Modbus RTU/TCP protocols Master/Slave mode
• drivers of the DCON protocol for modules of input-output I-7xxx, I-8xxx ICP DAS companies

The PLC of Humming-bird-K1 can work in the expanded temperature range (from -40 °C to +85 °C).

"Humming-bird-K1" - the finished solution on the platform of the integrated Freescale iMX28 processor with ARM9 family core. The device can be used in data collection systems as the transformer of interfaces and the managing controller.

Input/output ports of general purpose of this computer can be applied to control of external devices. Installation of the body of the device on a DIN rail is possible.

Communication ports:

• 3 RS-485 ports,
• 1 RS-232 port,
• Ethernet 10/100 Mbit,
• serial port of the console,
• 1 USB 2.0 port,
• 2 digital inputs;
• 2 digital output,
• SPI,
• I2C,
• UART,
• GPIO.

System

• Freescale iMX287 processor 454 MHz of ARM9,
• The RAM of 128 MB of DDR2, NAND Flash of 256 MB (increase up to 1 GB is possible),
• RTC with self-contained supply,
• setup and management - the consecutive console, the ssh-console.

Utilization properties: power supply 5B, operating range of temperatures-40. + 85C, the body on a DIN rail.

Depending on a task it is possible to use add-on modules of input-output with fastening on a DIN rail with connection on RS485 or Ethernet from the nomenclature of ARIES, ICP DAS companies (i7xxx), Beckhoff, etc.
