Chapter 5 Configuring & Programming software
Users who are familiar with the logic boxes of Boolean algebra can use the xLogicsoft. In fact xLogicsoft
adapts the function block programming way. xLogicsoft is available as a programming package for the
PC. This mode provides many features, for example:
A graphic interface for offline creation of your circuit program by means of
Function Block Diagram (function chart)
Simulation of your circuit program on the PC
Generating and printing of an overview chart for the circuit program
Saving a backup of the circuit program on the hard drive or other media
Rievtech configuration of blocks
Transferring the circuit program
– from the xLogic to the PC and
Online test: Display of status changes and process variables of xLogic in RUN mode:
– Status of a digital I/O, shift register bits and cursor keys
– The values of all analog I/Os
– The results of all blocks
– The current values (including the times) of selected blocks
– Change the output(the input pin of the output cannot be connected) status
via xLogicsoft
Starting and stopping circuit program execution via the PC (RUN, STOP).
The xLogic alternative
As you can see, xLogicsoft represents an alternative to conventional engineering
methods:
1. You start by developing the circuit program on your desktop.
2. You simulate the circuit program on your computer and verify its functions, before
you actually implement it in your system.
3. You can add comments to the circuit program and create hard-copies.
4. You save a copy of your circuit program to the file system on your PC, to make it
directly available for any modifications.
5. It takes only a few key actions to download the circuit program to xLogic.
6. Under Simulate mode in xLogicsoft, you can study how to program via the panel
