ICOP’s QEC-M-01 is an EtherCAT master system based on a Vortex86EX2 processor. The development environment uses industrial Arduino software, 86Duino IDE, supporting EtherCAT API, which performs real-time field monitoring and big data collection and supports graphical programming tools, making it easy to hire software engineers and shorten the market time.
People can also use AI software to calculate the carbon footprint of power consumption and temperature to enhance the field-system process.

86Duino Software
86Duino Coding IDE 500
The 86Duino integrated development environment (IDE) software makes it easy to write code and upload it to 86Duino boards. It runs on Windows, Mac OS X, and Linux. The environment is written in Java and based on Arduino IDE, Processing, DJGPP, and other open-source software.
The open-source 86Duino Software (IDE) makes it easy to write code and upload it to the QEC. Refer to the Getting Started page for Installation instructions. (Release Note)
Libraries
The 86Duino environment can be extended through the use of libraries, just like most programming platforms. Libraries provide extra functionality for use in sketches, e.g., working with hardware or manipulating data. A number of libraries come installed with the IDE, and 86Duino supports most of the Arduino Standard Libraries as well as provides dedicated libraries to utilize the 86Duino-specific hardware functions.
You can also download or create your own libraries. See these instructions for details on installing libraries. There’s also a tutorial on writing your own libraries; and further, you may refer to Arduino’s API Style Guide for some guidelines on making a good Arduino-style API for your library.
To use a library in a sketch, select it from Sketch > Import Library.
