Service software for automation products
PACTware is a vendor and field bus neutral software solution for the operation of devices in the field, which is also used by KSB as a standard service tool for automation products.

Drivers (or DTMs = Device Type Managers) for field devices from different manufacturers can be loaded into the service tool and are then available for selection in an electronic hardware catalogue.

Hardware requirements
Parameters can be set using a laptop, for example, which is connected to the field device via the RS232 interface. PACTware requires at least 100 Mbytes of hard disk space and 50 Mbytes of main memory. We recommend using a computer equipped with a Pentium III 400 MHz processor or higher, XGA graphics and a Microsoft-compatible mouse or equivalent pointing device.
