The program
“
SafePLC
2
“ is
a graphics-oriented software to create a PLC-based monitoring
program for an SCU system..
This programming software allows the graphic processing of consecutively running programs by
means of function blocks, and the adjustment of sensor functions, actuator functions, and other
technical functions.
About this manual
This manual explains the bases of SafePLC
2
. The manual explains the most important dialogue
