The ACP1 is programmed with CTI’s

new open standards IEC61131

compliant development system.  It

allows users to add languages, functions

and memory organization features to existing CTI

2500 Series®  and Simatic 505®  controllers and is

able to exchange data between the RLL program

on the host PLC and the IEC61131 programs.

Embedded client/server protocols perform data

transfers based on configuration tables without the

need for any additional logic in the PLC or ACP1

application program.  It has been used to build

systems using 2500 Series®  Processors to

operate dozens of variable speed drives

connected over Ethernet/IP and Modbus-TCP to

control material movement in the factory.  The

unique capabilities of Function Block Diagram

(FBD) programming in the ACP1 allowed the user

to develop a single function block which controlled

all the drives in the system.  Development and

maintenance of the software were dramatically simplified

compared to doing the same project in RLL.

Smart ModernizationTM

Whether you are an existing user of the 505 Series® or

looking for your next control system, CTI’s Smart

Modernization approach ensures the CTI control system you

are investing in will be around for many years to come.

Smart Modernization encapsulates our philosophical

approach to making control system advancements while

ensuring seamless transitions for our customers through the

continuous evolutionary improvement of our products.

With many 505 Series® products still in use today—some in

use for more than 30 years— the 2500 Series® allows these

customers to modernize existing controls without expensive

re-wiring, reprogramming, retraining, or product line

shutdowns.  Upgrading a control system with modern-day

replacements of old components and/or enhancing

performance with new advanced function modules — all of

which are backward compatible — mitigates risk during

migration and allows reuse of existing application programs

and hardware — reducing cost and downtime.  That’s what

we call Smart ModernizationTM.
