Working Principle of Applicom PCIE2000ETH

The Applicom PCIE2000ETH is an intelligent PCI-Express-based industrial Ethernet communication card. It establishes highly reliable data connections between industrial PCs (HMI, SCADA, MES hosts) and on-site PLCs and other automation devices via Ethernet.

Equipped with a dedicated on-board embedded processor, the card locally handles industrial protocol parsing, cyclic data polling, frame encapsulation and decapsulation, error detection and link maintenance. These operations run independently without consuming the host CPU resources, eliminating communication bottlenecks on the host side and ensuring real-time data transmission for industrial applications.

When installed into the PCIe slot of an industrial PC, the card creates a high-speed point-to-point data path with host memory over the PCIe bus. Its RJ45 Ethernet port connects to the factory industrial network. Supported manufacturer-specific industrial Ethernet protocols operate on-board to enable bidirectional data communication with remote PLCs from Siemens, Allen-Bradley, Schneider, GE-Fanuc, Mitsubishi, Omron and other brands.

Configuration items such as device addresses, polling intervals, tag mapping and protocol selection are downloaded to the on-board flash memory using Applicom configuration software. After initialization, the hardware performs autonomous cyclic read-and-write operations on registers of field devices, and stores raw data in a shared-memory region accessible by host-based applications.

Upper-level application software retrieves process data through the OPC-DA server, ActiveX controls, DDE or dedicated APIs. Control commands sent from HMI or SCADA are passed from the host PC to the card over the PCIe bus, packaged into matched industrial protocol frames, and transmitted to field controllers through the Ethernet interface.

An integrated watchdog circuit continuously monitors communication health. In case of network disconnection, packet loss or device offline events, the card generates diagnostic status bits and alarm messages, and reports them to host applications for fault indication and handling.

Voltage & Current

Power is supplied through the industrial PC PCI-Express ×1 slot, drawing 3.3 VDC and 12 VDC power from the motherboard PCIe bus. Typical power consumption ranges from 3-5 W. No external power supply is required.

Input / Output Interfaces

PCI-Express ×1 host interface: internal bidirectional data channel for communication with the industrial PC motherboard

RJ45 10/100Base-TX Ethernet port: external bidirectional industrial Ethernet signal interface with auto-negotiation function

On-board LED indicators: Link, Tx and Rx status lights for operational diagnostics

Note: This unit is a dedicated communication adapter without analog or discrete field I/O terminals. All field process signals are transmitted via Ethernet from remote PLCs and automation devices.

Supported Software & Programs

Applicom Platforma configuration software: used for hardware setup, protocol selection, tag mapping, diagnostic testing and downloading parameters to onboard flash memory

OPC-DA Server (v1.0a / v2.05 / v3.0): provides standard data access interface for SCADA and HMI applications

Wonderware I/O Server: compatible with FastDDE and SuiteLink for seamless Wonderware HMI integration

Development resources: Win32 DLL library supporting custom application development in Visual Studio C/C++/C#/VB, Delphi, LabVIEW and LabWindows-CVI

Supported operating systems: Windows 7/8/10, Windows Server; partial support for Linux and RTX real-time operating systems
