Programmable controllers - Part 3: Programming languages (IEC 61131-3:2013)

This part of IEC 61131 specifies syntax and semantics of programming languages for programmable controllers as defined in Part 1 of IEC 61131. The functions of program entry, testing, monitoring, operating system, etc., are specified in Part 1 of IEC 61131. This part of IEC 61131 specifies the syntax and semantics of a unified suite of programming languages for programmable controllers (PCs). This suite consists of two textual languages, Instruction List (IL) and Structured Text (ST), and two graphical languages, Ladder Diagram (LD) and Function Block Diagram (FBD). An additional set of graphical and equivalent textual elements named Sequential Function Chart (SFC) is defined for structuring the internal organization of programmable controller programs and function blocks. Also, configuration elements are defined which support the installation of programmable controller programs into programmable controller systems. In addition, features are defined which facilitate communication among programmable controllers and other components of automated systems.

Automates programmables - Partie 3: Langages de programmation (CEI 61131-3:2013)

La CEI 61131-3:2013 spécifie la syntaxe et la sémantique d'une suite unifiée de langages de programmation utilisés pour les automates programmables (AP). Cette suite est constituée de deux langages textuels, liste d'instructions (IL, Instruction List) et texte structuré (ST, Structured Text), et de deux langages graphiques, diagramme à contacts (LD, Ladder Diagram) et diagramme de bloc fonctionnel (FBD, Function Block Diagram). Cette troisième édition annule et remplace la deuxième édition publiée en 2003 et constitue une révision technique. La présente édition inclut les modifications techniques majeures suivantes: elle est une extension compatible de la deuxième édition et les principales extensions concernent de nouveaux types de données et de nouvelles fonctions de conversion, des références, des espaces de noms et des classes de caractéristiques orientées objet, et des blocs fonctionnels.

Programirljivi krmilniki - 3. del: Programski jeziki (IEC 61131-3:2013)

Ta del standarda IEC 61131 določa skladnjo in semantiko programskih jezikov za programirljive krmilnike, kot je določeno v 1. delu standarda IEC 61131. Funkcije programskega vnosa, preskušanja, nadzorovanja, operacijskega sistema itn. so opredeljene v 1. delu standarda IEC 61131. Ta del standarda IEC 61131 opredeljuje skladnjo in semantiko programskih jezikov za programirljive krmilnike (PCs). Niz sestavljata dva tekstovna jezika, seznam z navodili (IL) in strukturirano besedilo (ST) ter dva grafična jezika, lestvični diagram (LD) in funkcijski blokovni diagram (FBD). Za strukturiranje interne organizacije programov programirljivega krmilnika in funkcijskih blokov je določen dodaten niz grafičnih in enakovrednih elementov, imenovanih sekvenčni funkcijski diagram (SFC). Prav tako so določeni konfiguracijski elementi, ki podpirajo namestitev programov programirljivega krmilnika v sisteme programirljivega krmilnika. Dodatno so določene lastnosti, ki omogočajo komunikacijo med programirljivimi krmilniki in drugimi komponentami avtomatiziranih sistemov.
