CODESYS Visualization

Development of HMI Screens directly in the IEC 61131-3 Development Environment

Developing a human machine interface (HMI) and a PLC application in one and the same IEC 61131-3 development system: Over the past ten years, the CODESYS Visualization has proven itself in thousands of industrial machine and plan applications around the world.

Highlights

CODESYS contains an integrated visualization editor: Visualization screens of different complexity, on the basis of available visualization elements.

Developing the visualization in parallel to the PLC program: All work is done in the familiar PLC development environment interface.

Simplified Engineering: Direct access to all application variables, due to the full integration in the IEC 61131-3 Development System, no tag list comparison required. Application and visualization are supervised simultaneously.

Visualization screens for machine and plant operation, for testing and commissioning: The created visualization screens can be reused for other tasks as often as required.

Display and operation on different visualization clients with the same data: Absolute flexibility, execution on all sorts of clients, for example on the PLC Development System, on the PLC itself, on the internet browser (on tablets and smartphones with HTML5) or on a remote PC and if desired on different client platforms simultaneously.

Extended functionality due to the integration in the IEC 61131-3 development software: e.g. "FB instances" from visualizations, array access from visualizations, real time data recording, extendable pool of visualization elements, call of PLC functions from the visualization etc.
