range of standard functions and operators.
This language is primarily used to implement complex procedures that cannot be
easily expressed with graphical languages (e.g. IF / THEN / ELSE, FOR, WHILE...).
•
Instruction List (IL)
A low level 'assembler like' textual language that is based on similar instruction list
languages found in a wide range of today's PLC’s.
The Maxiflex P3 CPU implements all 5 of these IEC61131-3 languages as well as a
sixth lan
guage called “Flow Chart”.
•
Flow Chart (FC)
Recognizing that virtually every engineer graduating from college today has
programmed in Flow Chart, the Workbench fully supports graphical Flow Chart
programming. The Flow Chart is an easy to read decision diagram where actions
are organized in a graphic flow. Binary decisions are used to control the flow. The
Flow Chart Editor has full support for connectors and sub-programs. Actions and
tests can be programmed in LD, ST or IL.
12.2 Programming the Maxiflex P3 CPU
The Maxiflex P3 CPU can be programmed in any of the supported languages with the aid of
the Omniflex ISaGraf Programmer’s Workbench.
For program development, the Application Workbench provides powerful and intuitive
Windows based graphical and textual editors with drag-and-drop, and cut-and-paste to
enhance ease of use.
The Application Workbench offers the following features:
•
Project Management
•
I/O Definition
•
Modular Programming
•
Simulation
•
Real-time on-line debugging
•
Document Generation
Full instructions on the use of the Application Workbench are available in a separate manual.
This manual is restricted to instructions specific to the Maxiflex P3 CPU.
12.3 Installing the Omniflex ISaGraf Application Workbench for the Maxiflex P3 CPU.
The Omniflex ISaGraf Application Workbench installs together with the Omniset Pro
configuration utility. This software suite allows remote programming as well as providing
simultaneous access to the CPU by Omniset for remote configuration.
See the Application Workbench installation instructions supplied with the software to install
the Application Workbench with Omniset Pro.
