VisiLogic
VisiLogic is an easy to use and intuitive programming software that is included with this product.
VisiLogic is a powerful software package that allows the Vision™ series of integrated PLC & HMI to be programmed easily and quickly. The software has a familiar intuitive feel and incorporates many advanced features such as discrete program routines, function blocks, data tables, data logging, trending and alarm handling. All of the standard maths functions are available and complex formula can be developed without the need to have a degree in computer science!
The integrated intuitive function blocks really make the Vision™ series the powerful devices that they are. There are many pre-set function blocks available performing a wide variety of advanced tasks as easily as dropping & dragging an icon into your program and configuring a few parameters.
Subjects such as CAN Open networking, Modbus communications, pulse trains outputs and bespoke serial communication protocols all have function blocks available to make the programmers life less difficult. To find out more detail about the range of function blocks available visit the VisiLogic software page HERE.
You can use VisiLogic and the associated software utilities to program, control, access and download data to and from the PLC remotely and directly.
