CODESYS ® is the leading manufacturer-independent IEC 61131-3 automation software for engineering control systems.

CODESYS ADD-ONS

IEC 61131-3 Software Suite for engineering

The leading Software Platform for IEC 61131-3 compliant project engineering

CODESYS offers a variety of add-ons. Even though all components for engineering automation applications are integrated in CODESYS, CODESYS Add-ons can further complement the components for efficient application development. CODESYS Add-on products are available in the CODESYS North America Store.

CODESYS provides users with upper-level programming tools and offers automation technology software suites for end users and system integrators. These include, for example:

 

CODESYS Professional Developer Edition (PDE)
The CODESYS Professional Developer Edition is a cost-effective introduction to professional application optimization. With little effort, the toolchain can be tested for your benefit or a cost-effective application in the project can be achieved.

The CODESYS Professional Developer Edition subscription combines all solutions for professional IEC 61131-3 application creation and management in a single license. The CODESYS Professional Edition is based on the C/C++ standard and includes six additional software packages:

  • CODESYS UML: Two new Unified Modeling Language diagrams, class and state diagrams.
  • CODESYS SVN: Connects to the software version control system Apache™ Subversion® for professional source code management.
  • CODESYS Git: Supports integrated use of the distributed version control system Git™ for all application objects.
  • CODESYS Static Analysis: Source code review to ensure compliance with predefined rules and provide key figures for code quality.
  • CODESYS Profiler: Measures runtime performance and code coverage in detail at the module level to spot timing issues.
  • CODESYS Test Manager: Automates testing of applications and libraries.

The six tools are sold as a kit, although each tool can also be used individually. CODESYS Professional Developer Edition is available as an annual and workstation subscription.

 

CODESYS Depictor
The CODESYS Depictor is a 3D simulation tool for smart devices. It can directly describe, display, simulate, control and optimize the processing of the operation process in the whole set of devices (device). The CODESYS integrated development environment (IDE) runs on the host computer, so it can effectively help developers intuitively understand the equipment (device), the functions of each part (stage) and their relationship in the overall process of processing operations.

 

CODESYS Control SL Extension Package
The CODESYS Control Extension Package enables the addition of numerous functions to all Linux-based SoftPLCs without the need for a complete runtime toolkit. Starting with runtime version 4.4.0.0, the CODESYS Control Extension Package is included in the package of all Linux SoftPLCs free of charge. Typical use cases are:

  • C code or API calls from the application.
  • Support of specific hardware features of a device, such as local I/Os, remanent data storage, start/stop switches
  • Provision and use of events for task calls
  • Provision of specific functions of the SoftPLC or the application, callable via PLC shell

This makes it much easier to use standard CODESYS Control runtime systems and customize them to use additional hardware features or integrate custom software components. 

ADVANTAGES

  • Hardware and operating system independence
    CODESYS is a manufacturer-independent and operating system-independent comprehensive and flexible system.
    The hardware independent integration offers sustainability for already deployed applications, and the possibility to start developments before having the hardware.
     
  • Highest possible flexibility
    Programmers benefit from the simultaneously use of six common programming languages (ST, SFC, LD, FBD, CFC, IL) and the possibility to integrate C or Python.
     
  • Performance improvement
    CODESYS customers enjoy regular updates and upgrades free of charge. Upgrades enhance the overall functionality, security and performance of the CODESYS software and extends its lifecycle as well.
    The latest version of CODESYS can be downloaded free of charge from our CODESYS North America Store.
     
  • Support
    With the maintenance of CODESYS software services, you can keep a tab on your software expenditure. Most programs cover users for a year and include support service thereby reducing an organization's investment in IT greatly.
     
  • Time Savings
    The option to use Object Oriented Programming (OOP) designs facilitates modular and highly reusable code for control applications and significantly reduce development and maintenance time. 
     
  • Online Changes
    CODESYS includes the possibility of changing the program without effecting the process - securely from all over the world.
     
  • Availability of a wide range of tools
    For efficient developments and diagnostics CODESYS has integrated analysis test, simulations, and offline tests. CODESYS includes efficient configuration, commissioning, and debugging tools to assist engineers throughout the development of their projects. 
     
  • Ergonomics
    A simple and intuitive environment for programming and configuration of applications is embedded in CODESYS.
