As an essential component of the ctrlX AUTOMATION platform, ctrlX PLC Engineering is a programming environment for creating software applications according to the IEC 61131-3 standard. It uses a CODESYS basis, extended by Rexroth-specific adaptations/extensions. CODESYS is the leading manufacturer-independent software for configuring control systems.
The development environment provides a variety of convenient engineering functions for development work, such as:
Editors for FBD, LAD, STL, ST, AS, in addition the variants CFC and extended CFC
Support of object-oriented programming
Comprehensive project comparison, also for graphic editors
Library concept for easy reuse of application code
Debugging and online properties for optimizing the application code and for accelerating testing and commissioning
Security properties to protect the source code and the operation of the controller
and much more...
