Logic Developer-PC

Logic Developer-PC is a proven PC-baseddevelopment and runtime system. It providesyou with flexibility in programming in all fiveIEC 1131 languages (Ladder Diagram, Struc-tured Text, Instruction List, Function Block

Diagram and Sequential Function Charts),web publishing of logic, and connectivity toa wide choice of PLC and open I/O devices.It includes support for QuickPanel Control(Windows CE-based), Windows NT/2000/XP,and Embedded NT/XP.

Proficy View

Proficy View is the graphical interfacecomponent, an HMI specifically designedto address your machine-level operatorinterface and HMI requirements. It includesa wide range of PLC/device drivers and

OPC client/server support, and providesremote connectivity and thin client supportfor diagnostic and data monitoring. It alsosupports GE's full line of operator inter-

faces, including QuickPanel*, QuickPanelView (Windows CE-based), and WindowsNT/2000/XP.

Logic Developer-PLC

Logic Developer-PLC is an all-encompass-ing system that helps you program and

configure all GE's PLCs and ProgrammableAutomation Controllers (PACs), including

VersaMax* Professional, Standard, andNano/Micro versions, Series 90*-30, Series90-70 and PACSystems RX7i and RX3i.

Save Time WithTight IntegrationIn addition to common development tools, all Machine Edition

components share a common database and common objects

across applications, including logic, scripts and animation.

"With its extensive capabilitiesand integrated platform, GE'sMachine Edition software is abetter solution for us and ourcustomers. The ability to developHMI and PLC programming in asingle package using commonediting tools, database, andobjects has greatly simplifiedthe process and decreasedprogramming time."

Unique Features ThatGive You an EdgeYou can easily add functionality and simplify complexity to

reduce the learning curve for engineers, achieve higher

operating efficiency and lower development costs.

Object Oriented Programming (Toolchest)

Manages libraries of built-in and user created logic, graphical ob-jects, script sequences and more. It saves you time by eliminatingthe need to manually update each occurrence of an object whenthe master or library version is changed.

User Defined Function BlocksAllows you to specify and reuse specific function blocks. It saves youtime by using function block capabilities exactly where you want them.

Symbolic Names andAutomated Address Management

Allows you to create your programs with symbolic variables or canautomatically map locations for referenced-based variables.

Technical Advantages:

6 Wide range of PLC/device drivers and OPC client/server support, remote connectivityand thin client support for diagnostic and data monitoring

6 Web client/server

6 Optimized view for systems with up to 2500 I/O points

6 Expansive networking features

6 Multi-language support

6 Advanced scripting—uses standard VBScript with over 70 script functions to manipulateand format data

6 Web publishing—provides remote monitoring and diagnostics and remote client-basedreporting from a wide variety of web clients
