Creation of Professional IEC 61131-3 Controller Applications with a Host of Standard Features.

• All editors of the IEC 61131-3 (FBD, LD, IL*, ST, SFC) plus different variants of the standard editors
  *IL was marked as obsolete by PLCopen®, the IEC 61131-3 user organization, and is therefore no longer maintained. If required, IL can be enabled for use.
• Powerful and proven library concept for the reutilization of application
• Project configuration through wizards
• Input assistance for the input and configuration of data
• User-friendly programming with mouse and keyboard in all IEC 61131-3 editors
• Integrated compilers for many different CPU platforms optimize the controller performance.
• Comprehensive project comparison, also for graphic editors
• Extensive online features for debugging, optimization of the application code, and to speed up testing and commissioning
• Numerous security features for the protection of the source code and for safeguarding the operation of the controller
• Programmable devices from different manufacturers
• Extendibility and adaptability of the user interface without leaving the framework
• Transparent internal structures of the development tool and the available components
• Many seamlessly integrated tools for different kinds of automation tasks

Object-orientation in the IEC 61131-3 tool – boost your output!

• Real object-oriented programming (OOP) fully compliant with the 3rd Edition of the IEC 61131-3 Standard in all available editors without any additional tools
• Encapsulation of object-oriented program code in libraries with functional call interfaces: Convenient provision of, for example, system functions or special algorithms for PLC programmers without knowledge of OOP
• Inheritance of POUS to similar application parts to reduce development time and errors
• Object-orientation is not a must: Functional and object-oriented programming can be used and mixed as required.
