	IEC 61131-3 Programming Languages							IEC 61131-3 Programming Languages What is IEC 61131-3? IEC 61131-3 is a section of an International Electro-Technical Committee (IEC) standard that provides a definition for implementing PLC programming software. The standard was first introduced in 1993 as the result of an effort to standardize the myriad PLC logic editors in the automation market place. The goal of the standard is to give automation professionals a familiar environment and set of tools to create PLC programs across vendor platforms. MAPware-7000 has editors implemented for all five programming languages defined by the standard: Ladder Diagram (LD) Function Block Diagram (FBD) Structured Text (ST) Instruction List (IL) Sequential Function Chart (SFC) IEC 61131-3 has several features that make building and maintaining a control application easier. User Defined Function Blocks (UDFB) User Defined Function Blocks are a way of making the logic in a PLC program re-usable. The UDFB associates a set of inputs, outputs, and internal data with a logic sequence. Multiple instances of the UDFB can then be created and used throughout a program. Each instance of the UDFB will have its own set of data registers to work with. By using multiple instances of the same logic sequence, it is possible to make a change throughout a project by changing a single logic sequence in one place. UDFBs can also be used across different projects. Ladder Diagram (LD) Editor The Ladder Diagram editor uses the same programming paradigm as the Native Ladder editor. It is a graphic editor in which instructions are placed in a pseudo electro mechanical circuit. Instructions are activated by connecting them to the power rail of the circuit. Boolean operators are modeled as relay contacts and coils. Contacts can be arranged to block or allow power to flow from the power rail to downstream instructions based on the needs of the application. Coil instructions are activated when the circuit is on a logical state that allows power to flow to them. Function Block Diagram (FDB) Editor Function Block Diagram is another graphical logic editor which is based upon logic diagrams. The program is constructed out of individual blocks that represent some operation, which will have one or more inputs and produce one or more outputs. Complicated logical operations can be constructed by interconnecting multiple blocks together. Structured Text (ST) Editor The Structured Text editor is a text based editor similar to text based programming languages such as C/C++ or Visual Basic. Logical operations are created by combining variable names with operators to create logical statements. The PLC executes the statements from top to bottom as the program is executed. The Structured Text editor provides a great deal of flexibility to the programmer. Additional Resources For help getting started using the IEC 61131-3 programing mode refer to our IEC 61131 Programming Guide.
	Native Ladder Logic							What is Ladder Logic? Ladder Logic is the primary programming language for PLCs (programmable logic controllers). It is used in MAPware-7000 to create applications for Maple Systems HMI + PLCs. Ladder Logic Structure Ladder Logic's structure positions circuit diagrams and relay logic hardware in a way that resembles the rungs of a ladder between two horizontal power rails. Ladder Logic Instructions In addition to the root level Ladder Logic programming language, MAPware-7000 offers more than one hundred Logic Block Instructions (commands used to create complex routines) for a variety of tasks. Ladder Logic Block instructions include routines for: Inputs and Outputs Data Transfers Mathematical Operations Comparisons Logic Instructions Timers Counters Complex Functions Special Data Processing Functions (i.e., calculating the difference between the current time and date vs. a past time and date) Logic Block Instructions Online Monitoring Tools For complex ladder logic programs, it is often not enough to view the logic in the editor window, download the result to the PLC, and have it execute exactly as expected. Fortunately, MAPware-7000 has tools to view the logic on the end device as it executes. View Logic Online In Online Mode, the user can see the state of contacts and outputs in their logic diagram and watch the logic work as the data state changes. Green indicates that the contact is closed or the output is energized, red indicates an open contact or a disabled output. To test how a change in a value affects the network, simply click on it to force a bit or enter a new value in a register. View data in real time in a tabular format with the Data Monitor Window. This allows a user to track a larger block of data as it changes over time. The Data Monitor Window can also be used to manually update values. Data can be shown in multiple formats. Logic Debugger A debugger allows users to slow down the execution of a ladder logic sequence to a human time scale so that they can see what the HMI + PLC is doing one ladder instruction at a time. This is the best way to understand what the HMI + PLC is doing while it is occurring. The Debugger allows the user to set breakpoints to halt execution at a particular point in the logic and then step through, one instruction at a time, watching the data fields update at each and every step.

	Screens							Screens Create customized screens using graphic images included with the software, or personalize them with your own custom images. Screen Types In MAPware-7000, you can configure or define a screen to be one of the following: Base Screen Create as many base screens as are required for your application. Use buttons or tasks to change from one screen to another. A base screen fills the entire area of the display. Pop-up Screen A pop-up screen is displayed on top of a base screen and can be used to display additional information related to the base screen. A popup screen must be smaller than the underlying base screen. Template Screen A template screen also fills the entire area of the display but is not called directly by a button or function key on the HMI + PLC. A template screen is displayed by attaching it to a base screen. When displayed, all objects on the template screen are underlayed on the base screen. Keypad Screen A keypad screen is a specialized pop-up screen used to enter numbers or ASCII characters in a data entry display. There are four pre-defined popup keypad screens: numeric keypad, hex keypad, bit keypad, and ASCII keypad. These can be edited and custom keypads can be created. Web Screen Web screens are viewed by connecting to the HMI + PLC's built-in web server with an Internet browser. The HMI + PLC's web screens display in the browser as if it were a website, providing remote access to the unit for viewing system status information.
	FTP Server							FTP Server Data logged to the external SD card can also be periodically sent to an FTP server as a .csv file through the Ethernet port. Logs are kept on the SD card that detail what data has been sent to the FTP server. Data transmission can be turned on or off with a button press. To use the FTP feature, there must be an FTP server accessible at the configured IP address. The FTP server must be configured with the user and password specified and must permit write access for that user. The SD card must be present in the HMC and contain a log file to send.
	Remote Access							Remote Access HMC3000 HMI + PLC models have a built in web server that allow the remote user to both view and modify data in the HMC. Web Screens HMC3000 HMI + PLC models have a built in web server, accessible from any Internet web browser, allowing remote access to HMC data from a remote computer on the Ethernet network or, if exposed to the Internet, from anywhere in the world.

	Alarms							Alarms Display an alarm message on screen to notify the operator when a parameter or process goes out of bounds. Alarm Basics Alarms are pre-defined messages that display on-screen when a certain event occurs Alarms are used to notify the operator of a condition requiring immediate attention Alarms are triggered by a bit or coil in the controller, causing a pre-defined message to appear in the alarm list MAPware-7000 lets you create up to 255 alarms and display them in either a real-time or historical window Real-Time Alarms Real-time alarms are programmed to trigger when certain events in your process occur. Alarms display in real-time to show the current status of a process. When real-time alarms are triggered, they remain on the display window until they are acknowledged. The alarm condition then returns to its normal state. Display real-time alarms with different text colors to delineate the state of the alarm (active unacknowledged, active acknowledged, or inactive unacknowledged), severity, date and time, etc. Historical Alarms Historical alarms are a sequential history of your application's alarm activity. Stored in non-volatile memory, they remain even when the machine is turned off. Historical alarms can be displayed with the severity level, date, and time the alarm occurred, when it was acknowledged, and when it returned to normal. A historical alarm list can also be uploaded to the PC and saved as a CSV file using MAPware-7000. Alarm Configuration Configure alarm Windows^® with scroll bars (left/right/up/down) to view long or wide alarm lists. Export the alarm data in MAPware-7000 as a CSV file for editing, then import it back into MAPware-7000. Severity Categorization Alarms can be categorized and filtered by severity by assigning one of nine severity levels to each alarm. Then choose which alarm numbers you wish to view. For example, easily view alarms with a severity level of six or higher, etc. Additional Useful Features Alarms can be configured to use consecutive registers to increase speed and efficiency of displaying alarms The Auto-Acknowledge feature allows the operator to press one key for the option to acknowledge either each alarm separately, or all active alarms Alarms can be logged and stored in the HMI + PLC's non-volatile memory to be viewed at a later time If desired, alarms messages can be sent to a serial printer connected to the HMI + PLC
	Recipes							Recipes Easily manage batch processes by selecting different batch variables used for a specific process with the simple push of a button.

What is IEC 61131-3?

IEC 61131-3 is a section of an International Electro-Technical Committee (IEC) standard that provides a definition for implementing PLC programming software. The standard was first introduced in 1993 as the result of an effort to standardize the myriad PLC logic editors in the automation market place. The goal of the standard is to give automation professionals a familiar environment and set of tools to create PLC programs across vendor platforms. MAPware-7000 has editors implemented for all five programming languages defined by the standard:

Ladder Diagram (LD)
Function Block Diagram (FBD)
Structured Text (ST)
Instruction List (IL)
Sequential Function Chart (SFC)

IEC 61131-3 has several features that make building and maintaining a control application easier.

User Defined Function Blocks (UDFB)

User Defined Function Blocks are a way of making the logic in a PLC program re-usable. The UDFB associates a set of inputs, outputs, and internal data with a logic sequence. Multiple instances of the UDFB can then be created and used throughout a program. Each instance of the UDFB will have its own set of data registers to work with. By using multiple instances of the same logic sequence, it is possible to make a change throughout a project by changing a single logic sequence in one place. UDFBs can also be used across different projects.

Ladder Diagram (LD) Editor

The Ladder Diagram editor uses the same programming paradigm as the Native Ladder editor. It is a graphic editor in which instructions are placed in a pseudo electro mechanical circuit. Instructions are activated by connecting them to the power rail of the circuit. Boolean operators are modeled as relay contacts and coils. Contacts can be arranged to block or allow power to flow from the power rail to downstream instructions based on the needs of the application. Coil instructions are activated when the circuit is on a logical state that allows power to flow to them.

Function Block Diagram (FDB) Editor

Function Block Diagram is another graphical logic editor which is based upon logic diagrams. The program is constructed out of individual blocks that represent some operation, which will have one or more inputs and produce one or more outputs. Complicated logical operations can be constructed by interconnecting multiple blocks together.

Structured Text (ST) Editor

The Structured Text editor is a text based editor similar to text based programming languages such as C/C++ or Visual Basic. Logical operations are created by combining variable names with operators to create logical statements. The PLC executes the statements from top to bottom as the program is executed. The Structured Text editor provides a great deal of flexibility to the programmer.

What is Ladder Logic?

Ladder Logic is the primary programming language for PLCs (programmable logic controllers). It is used in MAPware-7000 to create applications for Maple Systems HMI + PLCs.

Ladder Logic Structure

Ladder Logic's structure positions circuit diagrams and relay logic hardware in a way that resembles the rungs of a ladder between two horizontal power rails.

Ladder Logic Instructions

In addition to the root level Ladder Logic programming language, MAPware-7000 offers more than one hundred Logic Block Instructions (commands used to create complex routines) for a variety of tasks.

Ladder Logic Block instructions include routines for:

Inputs and Outputs
Data Transfers
Mathematical Operations
Comparisons
Logic Instructions
Timers
Counters
Complex Functions
Special Data Processing Functions (i.e., calculating the difference between the current time and date vs. a past time and date)
Logic Block Instructions

Online Monitoring Tools

For complex ladder logic programs, it is often not enough to view the logic in the editor window, download the result to the PLC, and have it execute exactly as expected. Fortunately, MAPware-7000 has tools to view the logic on the end device as it executes.

View Logic Online

In Online Mode, the user can see the state of contacts and outputs in their logic diagram and watch the logic work as the data state changes. Green indicates that the contact is closed or the output is energized, red indicates an open contact or a disabled output. To test how a change in a value affects the network, simply click on it to force a bit or enter a new value in a register.

View data in real time in a tabular format with the Data Monitor Window. This allows a user to track a larger block of data as it changes over time. The Data Monitor Window can also be used to manually update values. Data can be shown in multiple formats.

Logic Debugger

A debugger allows users to slow down the execution of a ladder logic sequence to a human time scale so that they can see what the HMI + PLC is doing one ladder instruction at a time. This is the best way to understand what the HMI + PLC is doing while it is occurring. The Debugger allows the user to set breakpoints to halt execution at a particular point in the logic and then step through, one instruction at a time, watching the data fields update at each and every step.
