Automation Net PVI Developer 3.0

Automation Net PVI Developer is a software development kit from Bernecker & Rainer Industrie Elektronik Ges.m.b.H. (B&R Industrial Automation) that enables PC-based applications to connect to and interact with B&R controllers. Built on B&R’s Automation Net communication layer, it provides a unified, high‑performance interface for reading and writing PLC variables, subscribing to data changes, and integrating controller data into custom tools, HMIs, SCADA systems, test rigs, and enterprise applications.

Key capabilities:

• Connectivity to B&R Automation Runtime controllers over Ethernet and other supported links via Automation Net
• APIs and libraries for common programming environments (such as C/C++ and .NET), plus COM/ActiveX components for legacy integration
• Variable access with support for data change notifications, block transfers, and time‑critical read/write operations
• Centralized connection management through the PVI Manager, with diagnostics and tracing to simplify setup and troubleshooting
• Configuration utilities and example projects that shorten development time and help standardize deployments
• Seamless integration with projects created in B&R Automation Studio, including variable mapping and symbolic access

Typical uses:

• Building custom HMIs, dashboards, and engineering tools
• Connecting PLC data to SCADA, MES, quality, and data‑logging applications
• Automating testing and commissioning workflows from a PC
• Bridging plant‑floor data to enterprise analytics and reporting solutions

Automation Net PVI Developer helps engineers and software developers create reliable, high‑speed communication between Windows applications and B&R control systems, reducing integration effort while maintaining consistent access to controller data across projects and machines.
