IEC 61131-3 Programming IEC 61131-3 Visualization
Kontrons Industrial PCs are the systems of choice for several leading IEC 61131-3 suppliers. Control platforms which include the leading IEC 61131-3 Soft-PLC CoDeSys are in total integrated, maintained and supported by Kontron, a member of the CoDeSys automation alliance.
Unique Visualization: Target, separate INDUSTRIAL HMI and Web
Web Visualization Codesys is part of Kontrons ready integrated control product offers. See the respective entries in the product tables of this catalogue. CoDeSys is open Leading IEC 61131-3 suppliers have ported their respective software to Kontron hardware:
IEC61131-3automatic programming system
CoDeSys is more than an IEC 61131-3 program-ming system. CoDeSys is a mighty software tool for the automation industry, which covers many typical tasks in the field of plant and machine construction. Especially, CoDeSys offers a range of open interfaces for external software systems:
BrowserWeb-Server
❖ KW-Software with ProConOs CoDeSys supports all five IEC 61131-3 program-ming languages. It combines the power of ad-vanced programming languages with the easy handling and operational functions of PLC pro-gramming systems. CoDeSys is one of the most common IEC 61131-3 programming systems.

❖ Copalp with Straton ABC IT with ABC-RS7 (Siemens compatible SoftPLC) XML-report
Runtime systemData
❖ Open for network by Network variables
❖ Open engineer A practical, easy-to-use approach
❖ XML formated engineering data open for all kind of tools Functions such as Autodeclare, Autoformat and a context sensitive input assistance simplify the use of CoDeSys.
❖ Open for several off-the-shelf source code management tools The data of Kontrons control systems, programmed with IEC61131-3, can easily be visualised without the need of an additional tool.The IEC61131-3 programming system itself contains an integrated visuali-zation editor: the user can develop his application and his visualization masks by using just the same interface and me-chanisms. This permits operational forms which no longer require a separate PC as display device.Yet, one of the main advantages of this concept is the fact that the masks created within the programming system can be utilised in all the following operational forms without having to be modified: Via Web:by IEC61131-3 Web Visualization For test & diagniosticdirectly in the programming system
❖ Multi user operation for writing an application program High performance development Due to intelligent algorithms, large projects can be performed in surprisingly short compiling time. Useful development functions are provided: almost all IEC 61131-3 data types, offline simulation, breakpoints, single stepping, powerflow,
industrial sampling trace, and online change.
❖ Open POU pool, which all projects can share IEC61131-3 generates an XML description from the visualization information. This is sent to the controller combined with a Java applet. The visualization data then is available online on all kinds of client systems, via TCP/IP and a browser. For testing the visualization, or for diagnostic
purposes, an additional tool is not needed! The masks are immediately displayed within the pro- gramming system. b e per f orme d in surprising l y s h ort compi l ing tim e.

by IEC61131-3 Target Visualization The visualization masks are displayed on a PC. The programming interface is used for commu- nication, so that additional OPC configuration is not needed. For controllers with a display, the visualization
information can be turned into IEC 61131-3 code and then compiled with the appropriate code generator. This solution can easily be ported onto all devices programmable with IEC61131-3. Unique Visualization: Target, sepa-
