Notes on ifm system solutions
41753
With the AC1433/34, ifm electronic offers different system solutions for the simple implementation of
typical applications. System solutions consist of applications which are processed by the
device-internal CODESYS PLC.
ifm system solutions and user-created applications must not be stored and run simultaneously
on the AC1433/34!
► Delete all CODESYS system solutions stored on the device before installing new ifm
system solutions or user applications!
ifm system solutions can only be installed and run if the device-internal PLC is activated.
► Activate the PLC of the AC1433/34 (→
Enable/Disable the device-internal PLC
(
))!
Users can download the available ifm system solutions from ifm's website.

Types of ifm system solutions
41684
There are 2 types of ifm system solutions:
Single apps
Single apps provide the user with a
CODESYS-based solution. Single apps directly
access the I/O mechanisms of the CODESYS
PLC. Only one single app must be stored and
executed on the device.
Basic app + multi apps
Multi apps provide the user with the possibility to
execute different CODESYS-based solutions in
parallel. The multi apps use the services of the
basic app in order to be able to access the inputs
and outputs of AC1433/34 at the same time. They
operate as a pure communication layer between
the I/O mechanisms of the CODESYS PLC and
the connected multi apps.
Maximum 5 multi apps at a time can be stored
and executed in parallel on the device.
