Product Description
CODESYS Control Linux SL converts an industrial PC into a high-performance PLC – scalable to nearly any degree by the PC performance. The system is suitable for applications without hard demands on the real-time behavior.
Benefits
The runtime system supports numerous I/O interfaces, such as discrete inputs and outputs or fieldbus adapters, as well as integrated IEC 61131-3 protocol stacks. The fieldbuses are configured directly in the CODESYS Development System without using any additional tools.
Communication with the CODESYS Development System, also for debugging the running application
Execution of controller functions and generation of graphical user interfaces
Operation of I/O systems and fieldbuses
Interfaces
CODESYS OPC UA Server, as full version for data exchange.
Visualization

Additional requirements |
|
Restrictions | IEC applications are bound to one CPU core. Other distributions may also be used at your discretion but are not part of the product release and related tests. Not released for use in containers or virtual machines (VMs)! |
Licensing | Single device license: The license can be used on the target device/PLC on which the CODESYS runtime system is installed. Licenses are activated on a software-based license container (soft container), which is permanently connected to the controller. Alternatively, the license can be stored on a CODESYS Key (USB dongle). By replugging the CODESYS Key, the license can be used on any other controller. Note: In demo mode, the software runs for two hours without a license. After that, a manual restart is required. |
Required Accessories | Optional: CODESYS Key |
