Programming Methods
There are two programming methods available for the DL205 CPUs, RLL (Relay Ladder
Logic) and RLL
PLUS
(Stage Programming). Both the DirectSOFT5 programming package and
the handheld programmer support RLL and Stage.
DirectSOFT Programming for Windows.
The DL205 can be programmed with one of the most advanced programming packages in
the industry ––DirectSOFT5. DirectSOFT5 is a Windows-based software package that
supports many Windows features you already know, such as cut and paste between
applications, point and click editing, viewing and editing multiple application programs at
the same time, etc. DirectSOFT5 universally supports the DirectLOGIC CPU families. This
means you can use the same DirectSOFT5 package to program DL05, DL06, DL105,
DL205, DL305, DL405 or any new CPUs we may add to our product line. There is a
separate manual that discusses the DirectSOFT5 programming software which is included
with your software package.
Handheld Programmer
All DL205 CPUs have a built-in programming port for use with the handheld programmer
(D2–HPP). The handheld programmer can be used to create, modify and debug your
application program. A separate manual that discusses the DL205 Handheld Programmer is
available.
