Engineering Tools (ICC)
The CC-linkIE TSN stack is supported by the ICC (industrial communication creator) tool.
ICC stands for Industrial Communication Creator; it is the unified tool by port for creating projects of any of the supported protocols. For the CC Link IE TSN stack, it helps creating a project configuration and the CSP+ device description file. For the Remote Station SDK, it is also able to create the local object dictionary for the CANopen support.
Note: It is possible (but not recommended) to create project configurations manually. For the CSP+ files, other tools may be used either on their own or together with the ICC. Creating an object dictionary without the ICC is not recommended.
EVAL Platform LS1028ARDB
The certification was carried out on the EVAL platform NXP LS1028ARDB.
