CODESYS ON CCP XS FOR BROMMA CONQUIP
3 PROBLEM ANALYSIS
CC Systems have developed the control system (SCS 2 ) that is in use on Bromma Conquips
spreaders today. This system is used to steer the spreader and control that it performs correct.
You can connect a PC to the master on an RS232 15 connection, on this connection you perform
program download, the Spreader Program produced in ABE is send to the system in this way.
The diagnostic of the system is also maintained through this connection.
BMS is the software that is used to handle both the download of programs and to monitor the
status and diagnostic of the spreader system. The connection between the PC and the spreader
system is only used when required.

Figure 7:
Showing the main idea being evaluated in the thesis
The main idea is to replace the Master computer in the current system with the on-board
computer CCS XS (fig.7). The reason are the touch screen that can be used to directly monitor
the system and that the Central Processing Unit (CPU) speed is higher leading to better
performance of the spreader system.
In the Master you have the code for the different components, a component take input signal and
according to the components specific logic calculate something and produce output signals.
These components need to be ported and placed in the CCP XS and this concern is from now
referenced as porting of components.
