What is CODESYS
?
CODESYS is a program written by the German company 3S-Smart Software Solutions to program various PLCs. It is written to conform to IEC 61131-3, an open international standard for PLC programming languages. Another program similar to CODESYS
called TwinCAT 3 was developed by the German company Beckhoff.
CODESYS has a built-in simulation PLC, built-in HMI capability (Human Machine Interface or Visualization), and can be programmed in various PLC languages, including:
Ladder Diagrams (LD)
Function Block Diagrams (FBD)
Structured Text (ST)
Instruction Lists (IL)
Sequential Function Charts (SFC)
Continuous Function Charts (CFC)
Who uses
CODESYS
?
CODESYS is used by companies such as Bosch, ABB, Moeller, Wago, Eaton, Festo and others to program their PLCs.

If you want to run and solve Ladder Logic programs without using CODESYS you can purchase my PLC Simulator 10 at
http://www.knoware-online.com/pc-plc.html
. This simulator turns your PC into a PLC, has the "look and feel" of Allen-Bradley RSLogix
®
Micro software (though not exact), runs and solves Ladder Logic programs that you write, and allows you to build machines with limit switches, pilot lights, selector switches, solenoids, and conveyors that move in response to the ladder programs you write.
How to use this tutorial:
To use this tutorial, download a free copy of CODESYS at
http://store.codesys.com/codesys.html?___store=en&___from_store=default
, then perform the exercises in Chapters 1 through 13 of this tutorial. This tutorial can be used without downloading CODESYS, but you will lose the benefit of hands-on programming experience.
Chapters 1 though 5 of this tutorial explain how to download CODESYS, install it, program a rung, build an HMI, and run the program.
Chapters 6 thru 13 move at a little faster pace and explain many of the more advanced function blocks of CODESYS.
