GX IEC Developer has long proved a popular PLC programming environment for users who wish to adopt IEC61131-3 style programming methods.
GX IEC Developer is more than a powerful IEC 1131.3 programming and documenation package. It supports your entire MELSEC PLC impleentation from the initial project planning to everyday operation, with a wealth of advanced functions that will help you to cut costs and increase your productivity.
The sophisticated program architecture comes with a range of new, user-friendly functions, including structured programming and support for function libraries.
Top-down application architecture
During the planning phase GX IEC Developer's structuring tools help you to organise your project efficiently: Use the intuitive graphical tools to identify and display tasks, functional units, dependencies, procedures and application structures. In addition to making your work easier, this also significantly reduces error frequency in later project stages.
Flexible implementation
In the engineering phase you then choose the programming language that best matches the structure of your project.
Program frequently-used functions in function blocks and organise them in libraries. This gives you the confidence that comes with knowing you are using tested, reliable code. Password support helps you to protect your valuable expertise.
Simple configuration of control components
Configuration of controller components is performed quickly and efficiently in tables with interactive dialogs and graphical support. And this powerful support is available for standard and special function modules as well as for the controller CPUs.
