1tool


1tool is the development system for the Carel programmable control platform, consisting of six different environments in which the designer manages the application software in all its different stages: from design to simulation, to testing and debugging, to arrive at commissioning in the field.
A fundamental feature of 1tool is integration. Because all the different environments are interconnected to best support development of the application software. Each environment is in fact dedicated to the realisation of a specific function and interacts with the others to offer the designer:

-  Greater reliability thanks to real-time error notifications in the design stage;
- Reduced development time using the advanced functions offered, first and foremost the new libraries of functional modules specific for HVAC/R;
-  Flexibility in terms of software customisation.

All these features, an intuitive graphic interface and user simplicity make 1tool an excellent product, responding to the most varied HVAC/R application needs.

Connectivity
As always Carel, beyond offering its customers a production endowed with quality and reliability, pays particular attention to everything necessary to offer the HVAC/R market interfaces with the most varied BMS (Building Management Systems). For the designer, it has become essential to offer applications for interface with the most common protocols. Thanks to 1tool, an interface with the most common BMS, such as Modbus LonWorrks, BACnet, can be developer simply and intuitively.

Backward compatibility
During the development of 1tool, Carel paid particular attention to all customers who, in developing applications in EasyTools, needed to capitalise on the work done in terms of the software created up to the present. Thanks to the Migration Wizard, a plug-in available for the 1tool package, it is possible to migrate applications created safety, thus safeguarding the work done until now.

Documents

The tool can be used to create documents based on the application, such as the list of I/O’s, parameters list of supervision tables and alarms. In this manner, it is possible for the developer to simply and quickly obtain the basic useful information for creating the final manual of the application.

Real time information

Thanks to the RSS fees system (“Really Simple Syndication”), now one of the most popular formats for distribution of information on the Web, the 1Tool developer has the possibility, simply and conveniently, to stay informed in real time on his own computer about the latest news and updates published on the Carel website.
