12.5 Workflows for the LINX
For designing programs with the L-INX two standard workflows are suggested. In the first
workflow, described in Section 6.4.2, all processes are based on logiCAD. The second
workflow, described in Section 6.4.3, is based on information gathered from the L-INX
Configurator. Both workflows assist the user to set up a running IEC61131 program using a
network connection.
12.5.1 Starting with logiCAD
This section introduces how to develop a new IEC61131 program starting up from scratch
using logiCAD. Figure 211 shows the necessary steps to perform.
Create IEC61131 program with logiCAD
Generate and export IEC61131 variables
Start LINX-110 Configuration Utility

After creating a new project for the L-INX and opening the Functionplan Plan_1 an empty
input area is shown, similar to Figure 212.
