SECTION 1 - INTRODUCTIONOVERVIEWThe INOSM01 Open Systems Manager provides bidirectional access to Bailey INFI 90 OPEN system process data from computer software applications. The application programming interface software provides the interface to the open systems manager (Fig.
1-1
).
Within the semAPI software, calls are integrated with computer software applications and communication is established on the Ethernet network. The open systems manager supports the TCP/IP communication protocol
(optional DECnet is also supported for clients on the VAX/
VMS, VAX/Open VMS, and Alpha AXP/Open VMS platforms).
The semAPI software runs on a
variety of platforms includingVAX/VMS, VAX/Open VMS, Alpha AXP/Open VMS, and Windows NT.
INTENDED USERSystem engineers and technicians installing, troubleshooting or repairing the INOSM01 Open Systems Manager should read this instruction. These individuals should have experience working with and know the precautions to take when handling electronic circuitry susceptible to electrostatic discharge. Personnel installing the system should also have an understanding of the Ethernet
communication system hardwareFigure 1-1. Open Systems Manager System StructureETHERN ET (TCP/IP)
