Logic Manager Programming Tool is an offline editing tool that allows you to configure, program, compile, and debug the main controller ELC.E14 and its I/O extension modules (EM1.8U, EM1.8D and EM1.8R) on the PC side. Compiled programs can be downloaded to the main controller and its extension modules to control physical devices. The main functions of this programming tool are:
- Supports project creation and management:
- Can create and manage projects, nodes, and devices in Logic Manager Programming Tool to simulate real-world scenarios.
- Can import and export projects and devices to maximize re-usability and save project creation time.
- Supports configuration of controllers and I/O extension modules:
- Can add and remove I/O extension modules.
- Can configure parameters of each input or output based on terminal labels.
- Can configure RS485 (applicable for controller only) and EM Bus communication parameters.
- Can configure network settings for the controller.
- Can set I/O extension module addresses and line terminations.
- Can create control logic by combining predefined function blocks (FB). The supported function blocks include Control, Math, Data, Logic, and Variable.
- Can compile control programs and simulate them offline.
- Compile the control logic to generate a control program that can be executed by the controller.
- Simulate the compiled logic using the offline simulator.
- Provides standard libraries that allow for the creation, import, saving, and use of customized templates.
- Can download control programs to the controller.
- Can simulate and commission control programs online.
