what's SamDraw

Created for the HMI of Samkoon SK series from Shenzhen Samkoon Technology Co., SKTOOL configuration software is a development system with an integrated development environment and abundant, advanced functions. Taking advantage of the Windows system, it shows its simplicity and good interface consistency. The menu Layout close to that of Windows operating, it is facile to learn and apply, thus engineers can easily develop their proper projects for the configuration used in the SKTOOL. It features a decrease of time to develop automation projects and to upgrade, maintain the system, as well as a seamless integration with third-party applications and productivity enhanced.

 

Functions and features of SKTOOL are summarized below:

1. Screen

Samkoon SK HMI is equipped with 2,6 million display colors, much more bright compared with products of other manufacturers. Using SKTOOL, engineers can find it more convenient and efficient to design configuration projects benefitting from bright colors and rich gallery. When downloaded to HMI, the configuration displays exactly what PC screen shows without image distortion. Meanwhile the operation interface of SKTOOL is clear and concise, consistent with the design of layout menu of Windows. Taking advantages of major display configuration software and HMI configuration software, it is available to configure a high-performance and high-quality engineering document.

2. Complete functions

SKTOOL provides complete functions, including basic drawing shapes, color rendering, text rendering, library system, animation, bitmaps status, trend display, alarm control, etc.. SKTOOL is even equipped with new multiple sets of formulas and historical data, controls effects of pressing and so on. All what is needed for engineers to achieve an expected success is designing programs and configurations according to their own demand project features.

3. Communication

SKTOOL supports PLC communication drivers of major manufacturers in the world, such as Samkoon, Siemens, Mitsubishi, Omron, Fujitsu, Panasonic, Schneider, Emerson, etc., covering the very most of them. At the same time we can customize certain PLC communication drivers. SK-121F，SK-102H，SK-070F，SK-070H from SK series can simultaneously load two communication drivers.

4. Resource

SKTOOL provides abundant resources where Gallery contains three-dimensional indicator lights, three-dimensional buttons, motors, three-dimensional tank, three-dimensional pipes, electronic, bar graphs, etc., and lots of them come with graphic animation, so you can create a vive animation. It supports a custom gallery and pictures inserted from Windows. SKTOOL also provides rich functions of controls, such as trends and alarm controls, etc., to meet the needs of various configurations.
