IC693SLP300 State Logic Processor Module
Description
The State Logic Processor Module (SLP) installs in a Series 90-30 PLC ladder logic control
system to provide real time multi-tasking control for machine and process applications. It can be
programmed to perform computations, data acquisition, data communications and operator
interface functions. Also, the SLP module can provide machine or process simulation capabilities
to Series 90-30 PLC ladder logic control system to help reduce debug and startup times. This dual
processor architecture allows a user to create both ladder logic and state logic application programs
in any combination for efficient parallel processing solutions.
The SLP is programmed using the English Control Language Programming System (ECLiPS)
software package. It communicates with the PLC CPU over the backplane and can access user and
system data. Many SLPs can be supported in a single Series 90-30 PLC system and each SLP can
support up to 52 inputs and 52 outputs.
