Developing Motion control and I/O
programming using a standard set of
software tools streamlines software
development and creates
application programs that
are more effective and easier
to support in the field.
The CoDeSys development software
utilizes standard IEC 61131-3
programming and PLCopen motion
function blocks to provide proven,
open standard tools for developing
application programs for motion
control and I/O control running on
a single controller.
CoDeSys Development Tools
Program motion control and logic
using standard IEC61131-3 tools.
The suite of programming languages
and charting tool simplifies machine
development and support. Select
among graphical and text-based
languages – Relay Ladder Logic,
Function Block Diagram, Structured
Text, Instruction List, Sequential
Function Chart or Continuous Function
Chart. The CoDeSys development
environment provides tools for
creating visualizations which can
be used to build operator entry and
diagnostic displays useful for testing
and debugging the application.
PLCopen Motion Control Library
PLCopen (an independent worldwide
association) has defined a standard
library of motion programming
function blocks which cover all the
IEC 61131-3 programming languages.
Function blocks cover both motion
and administrative functions like
ReadParameter, ReadActualPosition,
PositionProfile, CamIn, CamOut.
ORMEC Motion Control Extensions
ORMEC's motion programming
implementation (ServoWire Motion
Blocks) conforms to the PLCopen
motion block definitions and provides
powerful, flexible functionality beyond
that defined in the standard. Using
the ServoWire Motion blocks, a variety
of applications can be written in any
of the IEC 61131-3 programming
languages. Function blocks cover both
motion and administrative functions
like blocks handling enhanced
diagnostic capabilities, Move Absolute
in Time, Move Relative at Velocity.
