Sercos International e.V. is the user organization responsible for the standardization and marketing of the Sercos interface.
The Sercos master integration in the IEC 61131-3 Development System CODESYS comprises
- an integrated configurator for the master and the connected slaves
- a portable protocol stack in form of a CODESYS library
- a driver for the Automata Sercos master card
- a runtime system component (CoSeMa) for direct access to the Sercos master card
- diagnostics functionality in the Development System and possibility to monitor the process through the IEC 61131-3 application
