Think & Do - an easy-to-use, intuitive, automation software development package including flowchart control logic, integrated Human Machine Interface (HMI), motion control, PID loop control, I/O network configuration and enterprise connectivity.

Think & Do PC-based control and human machine interface (HMI) development software with an integrated control environment that lets you do more with a given PC platform. Features Include;

Core Features:

• A full range of simple flowchart blocks to accelerate application development
• Concurrent flowchart execution allowing simple, modular logic design for rapid debug and maximum reuse
• A HMI development system that is integrated with logic development
• Development of logic and screens in parallel because both use a single tagname database
• Online change capability for both logic and HMI screens
• Motion control, PID loop control, I/O network configuration and enterprise connectivity  

Think & Do Live! is a full-featured PC-based control and Human Machine Interface (HMI) development tool.

A common tag database and built-in HMI make Live! a great low-cost PC-based control solution. Live! includes an OPC client, and an OPC Server as well as supporting MODBUS TCP, MODBUS RTU, and other industrial fieldbuses. It runs on Windows NT, 2000 or XP systems.

Features:

• Easy-to-use and easy-to-read flowcharts for control let you program like your machine or process operates, rather than one device at a time
• Built-in HMI with same database
• OPC client and server
• OCX allows direct connections to Visual Basic and C++ user programs
• Easy serial communication and string manipulation
• Easy connection to I/O and serial devices
• All I/O drivers are included, with virtually no limit on I/O tags including Ethernet, MODBUS TCP, MODBUS RTU, Profibus, DeviceNET and SDS
• Built-in serial communication block within the flowchart environment allows easy communication to barcode readers, drives, and other smart devices
• All motion drivers are included for both serial and PC-card based motion
• Integrated motion and PID control with easy-to-use flowchart blocks
• Productivity analysis tools 

System requirements:

• Pentium 133 MHz CPU or better
• 64 MB RAM (32 MB minimum with NT)
• 2 MB VRAM
• 500 MB hard disk space available (not including OS) 

Think & Do 8 is an Advanced PC-based control and Enhanced Human Machine Interface (HMI) development tool with a SQL Interface.

Think & Do 8.0 is the latest PC-based control product to evolve from the Think & Do family of software products. Think & Do 8.0 is the successor to the former Think & Do Studio product and incorporates the same powerful Studio instruction set that provides such advanced functionality as the integrated SQL command set. Programming the Think & Do 8.0 product is accomplished through a brand new, easy to use, grid-based flowchart editor and an integrated, full-featured HMI package.

Along with powerful drawing and animation tools, the new HMI provides real-time and historical trending and alarming along with ActiveX, MS.Net and VB script support. The HMI runtime environment also provides the ability to establish concurrent web HMI sessions where the HMI screens can be viewed remotely through an ordinary web browser.

The new grid-based flowchart editor makes it easy to create a visually appealing and well organized flowchart. The new flowchart editor also makes it easier to connect flowchart elements with the use of the new 'hotspot' connect feature.

To assist in the migration of flowchart projects created with the Think & Do Studio product, Think & Do 8.0 will install side-by-side on the same PC with Think & Do Studio and will have the ability to import flowcharts created in the Studio development environment.
