Chapter 2 Logix Features that May Not be Familiar to S7 Users
A Routine – the basic section of code in Logix – can be in any of these, and a
program can be made of routines written in different languages. The following
screen shot gives an example.
Logix Ladder Diagram
Traditionally, Ladder Diagram is used for implementing Boolean
combinational logic. In Logix, it can also be used for sequential logic, motion,
data manipulation and mathematical calculations, although other languages
may be more convenient for these tasks.
Logix Structured Text
Structured Text is a high level procedural language that will be easy to learn for
anyone with experience in Basic, Pascal or one of the ‘C’ family of languages. It
is used primarily for data manipulation and mathematical calculations,
although motion, combinational, and sequential logic can also be easily
programmed in ST.
