As promised last month, we’re bringing you an informative video about a brand-new PLC and you’re going to hear all about it from one of the brains behind the technology, Martin Boers of the German PLC manufacturing company, Phoenix Contact.
If there’s one man that has his fingers on the pulse of industrial automation, it’s Martin.
for this video, Shahpour Shapournia who works as a business developer here at RealPars, sat down with Martin to talk about the new PLC and discussed how it’s going to deliver endless possibilities to you in your career as a PLC programmer.
We know it sounds like a huge promise, but as you’ll soon see, this PLC delivers.
Not only you can use your typical PLC programming languages such as Ladder Logic, Function Block Diagram, Structured Text and more with it, but you can also use other common programming languages such as C++, C#, Rust, Java among many others.
That means the sky is practically the limit as to which programming languages you want to use, opening up a world of ways to optimally match the PLC language with the project you’re working on as a PLC programmer.
But that’s not all! Martin’s going to share some other cool operations you can execute with this new PLC, so get ready to watch and learn.
Also, as with every RealPars video, if you have any questions about this new PLC technology, just put them in the comments below the video.
PLCnext Engineer
This is where you are able to write and compile your project code in the language you need. Setting up your hardware configuration will be familiar to traditional PLC programmers, and you can integrate C++ programs into the IEC program by importing libraries. These can be imported from the PLCnext Store.
PLCnext Store
The PLCnext Store offers software solutions specifically for industrial automation and extends the functionality of your projects.
IT developers using Eclipse can user their scripts are written in C#, C++ or open-source software from Github, and package the software as a library so that IEC users can import the special functions, and treat it like a program written in ladder logic, using it throughout their code. Some libraries can be downloaded from the developer section.
Apart from the software libraries and the fully programmed Solution Apps, you can also download Function Extensions and Runtime apps. Speed up application development or transform the PLCnext Control into a controller for specific automation solutions without any programming. Benefit from the offered apps in the PLCnext Store or upload your own apps and profit from a new digital business model using a contributor account.
PLCnext Community
The PLCnext community is a really special place. This is where we can share our experiences and learn through the use of manuals and tutorials. Once you’ve created your program, you can post it on the Makers Blog. This way you can share and be proud of your creations!
The Makers Blog and the Forum are great ways of finding interesting ways to solve problems. Being able to communicate with your peers in an open format means it is possible to get different working solutions to the same problem, rather than a generic one size fits all solution, which can be inflexible. Posting your query on the Forum will not only attract the attention of Phoenix Contact engineers but also like-minded individuals, seeking a solution to their own problems. This platform allows users to share ideas and solutions with ease.
