ABOUT US
HIGH QUALITY TACTICAL SOLUTIONS
Finding a permanent solution is our ultimate goal!
Since 1990, our team has succeeded in understanding the needs of the industry and creating reliable products to serve them all.
Cape Software is an experienced provider of products and engineering services that assist with factory acceptance testing (FAT), application logic validation and documentation, automated SIS proof testing and operator training.
Cape Software offers VP Link that is used to simulate the field devices during the testing phase of process control systems. The VP Link software is routinely used for both control systems testing and operator training. Our products are platform independent which means we can support your PLC, DCS and SIS projects all with the same products. Our staff of Engineers has vast experience in developing customized VP Link models for various industries.
some cool facts
Numbers speak for themselves
Quality comes first! We make sure that every minute detail is looked into while developing even the smallest product and providing service. Our focus is 100% on client needs and satisfaction.
INNOVATIVE SOLUTIONS
VP Link provides a dynamic representation of a process that can be hooked up to an offline copy of the control system. VP Link reads the control system outputs and calculates the virtual process state by using hybrid process modelling.
Think of VP Link as the virtual process practice plant. When VP Link is connected to a distributed control system (DCS), safety instrumented system (SIS), or programmable logic controller (PLC), the system’s logic will react to signals from the virtual process as though it is interacting with a live one.
VP Link addresses a client’s simulation needs from simple to sophisticated process modelling in a continuous framework.
BREADTH OF APPLICATIONS
Cross-platform functionalities make VP Link a portable, easy-to-reconfigure solution. It is not only a cost-effective simulation package for OTS and logic validation using off-the-shelf components, but also has the lowest total cost of ownership thanks to its non-invasive stimulated I/O-based simulation and emulation.
Operator training (OTS) nodes can be used as a test-bed system for prevention, periodic logic validation and change management. Unattended, real-time performance logs can be retrieved while the modelling environment remains flexible, easy to learn and easy to maintain.
