SYSTEM AND RELATED METHOD TO FACILITATE PROCESS CONTROL

摘要

A system and related method to facilitate the programming of a PLC without requiring a physical connection of the PLC to the device used to program it. The system includes a database and a group of functions embodied in one or more computer programs. The functions enable a user to convert industrial process information of a process worksheet into PLC programming language. The system also enables a user to generate test documents associated with the controlled industrial process. This methodology enables a robust and structured workflow for software change control with new parameters established and any changes in the process control are captured by the system.
