IDEC SmartRelay software
WindLGC is available as a programming package for the
PC. This software provides many features, for example:
• A graphic interface for offline creation of your circuit
program by mea
ns of Ladder Diagram (contact chart /
circuit diagram) or Function Block Diagram (function
chart)
• Simulation of your circuit program on the PC
• Generating and printing of an overview chart for the
circu
it program
• Saving a backup of the circuit program on the hard drive
or ot
her media
• Comparing circuit programs
• Easy configuration of blocks
• Transferring the circuit program in both directions:
- from IDEC SmartRelay to the PC
- from the PC to IDEC SmartRelay
• Reading the values of the hour counter
• Setting the time of day
• Summertime/wintertime conversion
• Online test: Display of status changes and process
variables of IDEC
SmartRelay in RUN mode:
- Status of a digital I/O, memory marke
rs, shift register
bits and cursor keys
- The values of all analog I/Os and memory markers
- The results of all blocks
- The current values (including the times) of selected
blocks
• Starting and stopping circuit program
execution via the
PC (RUN, STOP)
The IDEC SmartRelay alternatives
As you can see, WindLGC represents an
alternative to
conventional engineering methods, with several
advantages:
• You can develop the circuit program on your PC.
• You simulate the circuit program on your computer and
verify its functions
before you actually implement it in your
system.
• You can add comments to the circuit program and create
hardcopies.
•
You can save a copy of your circuit program to the file
system on
your PC, to make it directly available for
modifications.
• It takes only a few key actions to download the circuit
program to IDEC SmartRelay.
