Programming Methods
Two programming methods are available for the DL205 CPUs: Relay Ladder Logic (RLL) and
RLL
PLUS
(Stage Programming). Both the DirectSOFT programming package and the handheld
programmer support RLL and Stage programming.
DirectSOFT Programming for Windows
The DL205 can be programmed with one of the most advanced programming packages in the
industry ––DirectSOFT. DirectSOFT 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.
DirectSOFT universally supports the DirectLOGIC CPU families. This means you can use
the same DirectSOFT programming software to program any CPU that is in the DL05, DL06,
DL205, DL305, DL405 series. A separate manual discusses the DirectSOFT 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 for download at http://www.automationdirect.com. Just search for “Handheld
Programmer” and follow links.
