Introduction
Welcome to CoDeSys@CHIP, the IEC61131-3 programming environment for the IPC@CHIP® family. CoDeSys is one of the most powerful Windows-based IEC61131-3 programming tools available for industrial controllers. The implementation of CoDeSys@CHIP provides the opportunity of programming in IEC61131-3 on the IPC@CHIP® platform, including all the IPC@CHIP® processor functions in hardware and software.
CoDeSys is the name of the IEC61131-3 programming environment running on a Windows PC. Developed by the company 3S – Smart Software Solutions GmbH, it is available for free. You can download the setup for the CoDeSys Programming system on http://www.beck-ipccodesys.
To get your IPC@CHIP® CoDeSys compatible you need a respective Run Time System (RTS). The RTS will be executed on the IPC@CHIP®. It manages the whole communication with the CoDeSys Programming System on your Windows PC. The RTS for the IPC@CHIP® is also available on http://www.beck-ipccodesys.
In order to have full CoDeSys functionality an IPC@CHIP® with the -IEC extension is required. The IPC@CHIP® SC1x-IEC, SC23-IEC and SC1x3-IEC series include the required CoDeSys RTS license. In case you already have a standard SC11, SC13, SC23, SC24, SC123, or SC143 (without the -IEC extension), it is possible to use it for testing purposes with full functionality, only limited by time (4 hours). The Development Kits DK51, DK55 and DK61 (DK51 and DK61 are used as reference hardware throughout this manual) the Software Evaluation Kit EK61 include an IPC@CHIP® with the -IEC extension. They are delivered with a SC13-IEC, SC23-IEC and SC143-IEC processor respectively.
The IEC Platform Concept
CoDeSys is a hardware independent Programming System which can be adapted to any industrial controller. To adapt CoDeSys means to create a software collection which describes and handles the hardware of the industrial controller. The software collection which adapts CoDeSys to a specific IPC@CHIP® hardware is called the IEC Platform.
With CoDeSys@CHIP we provide a powerful and easy-to-use development kit to create IEC Platforms for your specific IPC@CHIP® hardware. Also we provide ready-to-use IEC Platforms (e.g. for the Development and Software Evaluation Kits). So you can start programming your IPC@CHIP® in IEC61131-3 immediately.
Installing the IEC Platform
Before you start working with an IEC Platform, make sure that a valid CoDeSys Version is installed on your Windows PC. You can find the latest CoDeSys Setup on http://www.beck-ipccodesys or on the Homepage of the developer company 3S (http://www.3s-software.com). For programming the IPC@CHIP® at least CoDeSys version 2.3.4.7 or later is required for SC1x processors and version 2.3.9.9 or later for SC1x3 and SC2x processors.
As described in the chapter before, the IEC Platform contains the RTS and the TSP. Both components have to be installed. The next two chapters describe how to install them. The RTS will be installed on the IPC@CHIP® whereas the TSP will be installed on your Windows PC.
For your specific IPC@CHIP® hardware you can create your own IEC Platform to manage the hardware and peripherals of your IPC@CHIP® application. With the IEC Platform Builder, it is very easy to create an IEC Platform. The IEC Platform Builder is part of the CoDeSys@CHIP SDK. For more Information have a look at the CoDeSys@CHIP SDK documentation (http://www.beck-ipccodesys).
However, there is no need to create your own IEC Platform. If you use one of our Development/Evaluation Kits, you can download a ready-to-use IEC Platform. Using such an IEC Platform you have to follow the two simple installation instructions, described below. After that you can immediately start programming your IPC@CHIP® in IEC61131-3. You can find the IEC Platforms for the Development/Evaluation Kits on http://www.beck-ipccodesys.
