The driver works in polling or interrupt mode and services a maximum of four cards in one PC. However, the card can be utilized as ISA, PCI or PCMCIA or a combination as desired. The functions of the device driver are independent of the fieldbus system. The access to the variables in the process image is fully identical. OPC Servers and I/O drivers are the communcation layer between the PC and the control equipment like PLCs or RTUs. Novotek has developed two categories of communication software for PLCs and RTUs. The OPC Servers can be used with any OPC DA compliant system. The I/O drivers are developed to be used with Proficy iFIX.

The cifX PC card family offers the user a unified standard supporting all Real-Time Ethernet and fieldbus systems for PC-based automation.
The entire protocol stack is processed on the PC card. The process data exchange with the host is executed via Dual-Port-Memory or DMA (Direct Memory Access). Thanks to the uniform Hilscher platform strategy, all PC cards use the same drivers and tools, irrespective of protocol and card format. Communication protocols can be changed easily by loading the appropriate firmware. A rotary switch allows a simple and reliable slot assignment of the PCI and PCI Express card types. Moreover, special types are available, e.g. with integrated NVRAM, 2-channel cards or detached network interface.
A complete software package is always included within the scope of delivery. This package consists of an FDT-based configuration tool (IEC standard) for all products and networks, loadable firmware, documentation, and a driver tool kit.
Due to the Hilscher network controller netX, a 10-years delivery guarantee is granted.
The Low Profile cards are half- height PCI Express boards in MD1 format using 3,3 Volt technology. They are equipped with one lane and will especially be used in devices with reduced height.
