IEC 61131-3: The generic data type T_Arg

In the article The wonders of ANY, Jakob Sagatowski shows how the data type ANY can be effectively used. In the example described, a function compares two variables to determine whether the data type, data length and content are exactly the same. Instead of implementing a separate function for each data type, the same requirements can be implemented much more elegantly with only ...

IEC 61131-3: Unit-Tests

Unit tests are an essential tool for every programmer to ensure functioning of his software. Software bugs cost time and money, so you need an automated solution to find these bugs and preferably before the software is used. Unit tests should be used wherever software is professionally developed. This article is intended to provide a quick introduction and allow an ...

IEC 61131-3: Extend UNION via inheritance

In the post IEC 61131-3: Additional language extensions, I briefly described the UNION. A reader comment has pointed out to me the possibility, that a UNION can also be expanded by EXTENDS. Since this simplifies the handling of a UNION and the norm does not indicate that, I would like to introduce this possibility in a (very) short post. As already described in a post, a UNION makes it ...

IEC 61131-3: Parameter transfer via parameter list

Parameter lists are an interesting alternative for transferring parameters to PLC libraries. Strictly speaking, these are global constants (VAR_GLOBAL CONSTANT) whose initialization values can be edited in the Library Manager. When declaring arrays, their boundaries must be defined as constants. At the time of compilation, it must be known how large the array should be. ...

IEC 61131-3: Additional language extensions

The focus of my post has been the object-oriented extensions so far. But there are several general, usually not so far-reaching innovations within TwinCAT 3. Below, they are briefly described. Array initialization If a declared array has to be initialized, the list with the initialization values should be set into square brackets. VAR aTest1 : ARRAY [1..5] OF INT : [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]; ...

IEC 61131-3: Arrays with variable length

While declaring arrays, one had always to define a constant value up to now. Since the 3rd edition of the IEC 61131-3, arrays can be declared with a variable length. Thus, you can create functions much more generically than previously. Although, variables can be used for array bounds, they have to be declared as constants. An adaption of the array bounds is thus not possible at ...

IEC 61131-3: Das ‘Command’ Pattern

Durch den Aufruf einer Methode kann an einem Funktionsblock ein Befehl ausgeführt werden. Funktionsblock A ruft eine Methode von Funktionsblock B auf. So weit so gut. Doch wie lässt sich der Austausch solcher “Befehle” zwischen mehreren Funktionsblöcken flexibel gestalten? Das Command Pattern liefert hier einen interessanten Ansatz. Ein kleines Beispiel aus der ...
