CoDeSys programming
CoDeSys programming
(OP)
Does anyone have any experience with CoDeSys programming methodology. It appears to be in use mostly in Europe but we don't have a good feel for how well it does as a programming language or how easy it is to maintain, etc.
Thanks Larry

RE: CoDeSys programming
You can download and try out TwinCAT for free to get a feel for it. This video will get you up and running in less than 15 minutes:

RE: CoDeSys programming
This is great for using sequential automation within a larger program.
I've worked with a lot of platforms, including Step7, RSLogix, a few different GE platforms, DirectSoft, whatever the Omron one is, etc. Codesys definately holds up well when used with the Wago at least.
The tag and variable creation could be better, but it's not a problem once you get used to it.
