5.9LOGIC CONFIGURATION (PLC EDITOR)
Setpoint > Logic Configuration
The F650 logic allows setpoint the relay logic configuration using a sophisticated and complete program based on standard
IEC 61131-3, with block diagrams, which is described in this section.
The logic configuration (or PLC Editor) tool is a graphical design tool that allows the F650 built complex logic diagram in an
easy way using different logic functions.
The logical configuration is performed using graphical functions based on the IEC 61131-3 standard.
• This standard defines five basic ways of programming:
• Sequential Function Chart (SFC).
• Instruction List (IL).
• Structured Text (ST).
• Ladder Diagram (LD).
• Function Block Diagram (FBD).
Out of these five methods, FBD has been chosen because it allows for graphical configurations that are more
comprehensive. This method provides the possibility of grouping several basic functions inside a single function (hereon
called libraries), achieving higher modularity and clarity in the design.
