 		 The IDAC West Command Extension Standard Toolkit is offered to the serious FactoryFloor (and Cyrano) programmer. 

The commands listed at left are supplied in an XID format file that can be added to the standard Actions and Conditions in OptoControl by a simple menu selection. All of these commands then become available in the normal command editing dialogs. 

Some of the commands require external library support and the needed library is supplied as well. 

This toolkit is provided with an installation manual and a complete command manual in both printed and help-file format. In addition, one hour of telephone support and 90 days of e-mail support is provided to each registered user. 

Two other OptoControl Packages are also available from IDAC West. The Advanced Toolkit contains more commands from most of the categories at left and adds enhanced timers, logic, and two-dimension tables. The Math Toolkit provides RPN math functions that improve calculation speed and efficiency by an order of magnitude For more information on that toolkit, request literature from your local Opto 22 Distributor. 

Please note that although many of these commands are similar, a Cyrano program that made use of extended commands will not automatically convert when these toolkits are installed. Manual editing is required to implement a full conversion of that type of program. IDAC West also offers a conversion service that can simplify this process.
