- Comnunicates with the AGVs through:
- radio modem via serial link
- wireless lan with TCP/IP or UDP protocol
- Comunicates with the PLC:
- through RS232 serial link
- through OPC server
- via ethernet with send/receive or fetch/write protocol
- by generically reading/writing files
- Communicates with the data base through:
- SQL server
- MySql
- PostgresSQL
- ODBC
- It is responsible for the simultaneous movement of many AGVs:
- it automatically handles anticollision and priority algorithms among AGVs
- it calculates the best path to be assigned to each AGV, by respecting the direction of the path and the AGV orientation, as defined in the plant map
- It supplies an integrated development environment (x-script) to describe the AGV movement :
- with great flexibility and adaptation to the peculiarities of each plant
- without any need of external compiling tools
- by processing the infos received through the AGVManager native interfaces or by exchanging information through other channels (socket, …)
- it gives the possibility to integrate “plugins” specifically written for an application, to increase the functionality of AGV Manager for each plant
